“Autumn is a great time for mushrooms,” says Brigitte Hafner. “If you’re lucky enough to find wild mushrooms such as pine or slippery jack, throw them in.”

Ingredients

500 gm mixed mushrooms, such as portobello, enoki, king brown, shiitake and Swiss brown, large ones halved or quartered

80 ml (⅓ cup) extra-virgin olive oil

60 gm butter

4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced

8 thyme sprigs

Thickly sliced sourdough, brushed with olive oil and grilled, to serve

Method

1.Preheat oven to 190°C. Lay two large pieces of baking paper on a large piece of foil. Toss mushrooms in olive oil, then place one-quarter in the centre of paper, top with one-quarter butter, garlic and thyme, season to taste and wrap tightly. Repeat with remaining ingredients to make three more parcels.

2.Bake mushroom parcels on a baking tray until tender and full of lovely juices (20-25 minutes). Serve with grilled sourdough.
