Onions and Mushrooms - Allergy Free CookBook

Updated: Sep 24

Fried mushrooms and onions are a comfort food. Use just enough oil to cover the bottom of frying pan. Add a couple of dashes of salt and turn the heat on to medium. Allow the onions to cook until they boil. Turn down 1/3. Stir constantly to prevent sticking. As the onions become clearer, add the mushrooms. Fry until the mixture is caramelized. Mushrooms and onions can be eaten alone, on a plate of rice or noodles, or on top of a hamburger. If standing to stir isn't feasible, bake the onions and mushrooms in an oven safe pan.
