      Title: Mushroom Baghar (Dry Fried Mushrooms)
 Categories: Indian
      Yield: 1 Batch
 
    1/2 lb Button mushrooms
      4 oz Ghee or cooking oil
      1 sm Onion
      2 cl Garlic
      1 ts Dried thyme
      1 ts Dried sage
    1/2 ts Ground cardamom
      1 ts Salt
    1/2    Lemon
 
  Preparation time: 5 minutes
  Cooking time: 10 minutes
  
  If you are in the habit of serving mushrooms for breakfast try this
  recipe as an alternative to straight sautéing in butter. It calls
  for a little more preparation but the spicing, particularly with the
  addition of herbs such as thyme and sage, brings out the flavour.
  
  Trim away any hard parts from the mushrooms, slice, and put to one
  side. Heat the ghee or cooking oil in a heavy frying pan. Peel and
  thop finely the onion and the garlic, and fry for 2 to 3 minutes
  until they soften, but do not allow them to brown. Stir in the thyme,
  sage, and ground cardamom.
  
  Add the mushrooms to the frying pan, stirring constantly to ensure
  that they are coated with the ghee or cooking oil. Sprinkle in the
  salt, then squeeze the juice of the half lemon. Cook for a further
  minute and serve.
