👨‍🍳 Method

To assemble

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 180°C (355°F).
    ⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
    💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
  2. 2
    Heat part of the olive oil and fry the garlic until fragrant.
    ⚙ Pan-fryingStoveFrying pan
  3. 3
    Add the mushrooms and fry 5 minutes. Let cool.
    ⚙ Adding to the hot fat and fryingStove
    💡Wet vegetables make the dough soggy from the inside: fry or squeeze the spinach until no liquid is left, and cool before mixing with the cheese.
    💡Add by cooking time: what needs long (onion, carrot, meat) goes in first, and what burns fast (garlic, dry spices) goes in last, only until fragrant.
  4. 4
    In a bowl, mix the mushrooms, cream cheese and mozzarella.
