Air Fryer Portobello Mushrooms with a Herby Stuffing

Filled with sweet chestnuts, tangy cranberries, sage and rosemary, these mushrooms are so good. Chestnuts have a wonderful creamy texture, so they are brilliant for a filling or stuffing if you’re not having a meaty main course. You could add in extra cheese, such as stilton or brie, for a truly indulgent feast if you want to go all out! Please note you'll need a food processor for this recipe.

Ingredients

  • portobello mushroom 4
  • chestnuts 180 g
  • fresh rosemary 2 sprig (leaves picked)
  • fresh sage 1 handful (chopped)
  • spring onions 4 (chopped)
  • dried cranberries 40 g
  • breadcrumbs 3 tbsp
  • fresh parsley 1 (chopped)
  • garlic cloves 2 (grated)
  • grated Parmesan 1 tbsp

Method

Stuffing Preparation

  • Remove the stalks from the portobello mushrooms, then place the stalks into a food processor along with the chestnuts, fresh rosemary, fresh sage, spring onions and dried cranberries. Season well with salt and pepper, then blitz until everything is finely chopped and starts to form a paste.
  • Spray each portobello mushroom all over with oil and season well with salt and pepper. Set the mushrooms, stalk side up, into the basket of the air fryer and cook at 200°C for 7 minutes until they start to soften.
  • Meanwhile, make the topping. Mix together the breadcrumbs, fresh parsley, grated garlic cloves, Parmesan and a dash of olive oil, with a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Carefully spoon the chestnut filling into the middle of each mushroom, squashing it down to fit it all in. Sprinkle over the topping (some will fall off, but this makes for crispy extras) and cook for a further 8 minutes. Serve with extra grated Parmesan sprinkled on top.
