3 tablespoons

butter

onion (diced)

garlic cloves (minced)

½ teaspoon

salt

½ teaspoon

How to do

Use a large heavy-bottomed skillet to melt the butter. Add the garlic to the skillet to sauté until fragrant then add the onion, stir and cook until translucent (about 5 minutes).

Add the puffballs into the skillet, sprinkle with salt and cook for about 7 – 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. The puffballs should have shrunk in size and golden brown in spots then.

Squeeze the juice of the lemon over the mushroom, sprinkle with parsley and toss. Season the mushroom with more salt if desired.
