What is Button mushrooms with onion?
Button mushrooms with onion is a simple dish of sliced cultivated mushrooms cooked with onion, usually in a pan with a little oil and seasoning. It is a familiar home-cooking combination in many places rather than a dish tied to one specific region, and cooks may add herbs, garlic or spices to suit the meal.
The mushrooms turn tender and savoury, while softened onion brings a mild sweetness. Serve it as a side with eggs, grains or roasted vegetables, or spoon it onto toast for a light lunch. The mushrooms’ soft texture also works well folded into an omelette.
