I recently found porcini powder in my local green grocer and it’s my new favourite ingredient!
The boys are not fans of mushrooms but it is more the texture than flavour that they have an issue with so, this powder still gives loads of flavour without the slugs as the boys call them!
Serves 4-6.
Ingredients
1kg baby potatoes, finely sliced, most of the way through
1/2 teaspoon porcini powder
A large pinch of salt flakes
Freshly ground pepper
2 teaspoons oil
Method
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Centigrade.
Combine all of the ingredients.
Tip into a roasting tin, potatoes with their cut side up.
Bake for 1 hour, spooning over the oil in the pan occasionally.
Mushroom powder is a great ingredient. There is always some in my pantry from mushrooms I have dehydrated and ground into powder.
love these! I’ve never seen porcini powder…
I’m with you on the porcini powder Ros – it’s a great addition to soups and even stew bases too!
