Market tips...

Perfect pair

Spoon this creamy sauce generously over sirloin steak with mash and green beans. It also pairs really well with pan-fried chicken, beef sausages and mash or polenta with a sprinkle of soft blue cheese.

Cook’s tips

Earthy mushrooms and thyme are a harmonious culinary combo. Use Swiss brown mushrooms or mix it up with a handful of different varieties.

To clean mushrooms, wipe them over with a damp cloth or piece of paper towel, or simply brush them with a dry pastry brush. Avoid washing them in water as they can become water-logged.
