Mushroom and walnut salad
I love mushrooms. So if a recipe comes along with mushroom, some cream, some crunchy bits, I’ll have to try it. This makes quite a refreshing starter course, and you can make it look fancy without much effort. What more is there to ask for?
Ingredients for the mushroom salad
- 4 cups sliced mushrooms (about 12 oz)
- 1/2 cup walnut pieces (about 10 walnuts)
- 2/3 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup scallions, minced
- 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp fresh-ground black pepper
- 8-12 lettuce leaves
Preparation
- In a large bowl, mix the mushrooms, the walnuts, sour cream, scallions, lemon juice, salt and pepper
- you can refrigerate for up to a couple hours, but it will taste better if you mix everything just before serving
- Serve in individual bowl, with a couple lettuce leaves forming a nest for the mushroom mixture
