Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to bake champignons with cheese and garlic in the oven? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. Choose mushrooms of the same size, not too small. I took ones with a cap diameter of about 4 cm. They should be snow-white in color without stains, damage, or the smell of rot. They should not feel slippery to the touch. Take several types of cheese. I took 2 halves of peppers of different colors to make the filling look brighter. Take a more meaty tomato.

Step 2

Step 2
Rinse the mushrooms from soil under running water. Cut out damaged areas, if any, remove the “skirt”. Place the champignons on a towel to absorb excess liquid. Leave for 15-20 minutes. It is important to dry the mushrooms well, otherwise, once saturated with moisture, they will become watery. Carefully cut off the stem and scrape out some of the mushroom pulp from the inside, thereby expanding the cavity for stuffing. Chop the legs and large pieces with a knife.

Step 3

Step 3
Heat half the oil specified in the recipe in a frying pan over medium heat. Place the chopped mushrooms in a frying pan and fry, stirring occasionally, until the liquid evaporates.

Step 4

Step 4
Peel and rinse the vegetables. Remove the seeds from the zucchini. Cut into small cubes. Try to make cubes of the same size to make the filling more uniform.

Step 5

Step 5
Turn on the oven to preheat to 200 degrees so that it has time to warm up. Grate the cheese and garlic on a fine grater. Add fried mushrooms, cheese, garlic to the vegetables, add a little salt and spices.

Step 6

Step 6
Mix well until smooth and taste the filling. Add salt if necessary.

Step 7

Step 7
Fill the mushrooms with the filling and place in a lightly greased pan. During baking, the vegetables will lose volume. Therefore, in order not to end up with “empty” champignons, try to put as much filling into them as possible. Bake at 200 degrees for 15-20 minutes. The exact time depends on the capabilities of your oven. Ready champignons will release juice and the filling will drop a little.
