Brown Wood Mushrooms), whole
80ml olive oil
3 tbsp
balsamic vinegar
2 garlic cloves, minced

1/4 tsp dried
oregano, crumbled
Method:
Simply add all the ingredients to a pan, bring to a simmer then simmer very slowly for 10 minutes, mixing a few times to meld the flavours. Set aside and allow the mushrooms to cool slowly in the cooking liquid.

If desired, you can add tinned chopped tomatoes (drain the pieces first) to the mushrooms for more colour and different textures.
