Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Mushroom and Corn Filling:

    • Heat 1 teaspoon of sunflower oil in a preheated pan over medium heat.
    • Once the oil is hot, add the finely chopped garlic and onion. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes, or until the onions become soft and turn golden brown.
    • Add the sliced button mushrooms to the pan along with 1/4 teaspoon of turmeric powder. Stir and cook for 5-7 minutes, allowing the mushrooms to soften and the moisture to evaporate, leaving them perfectly roasted.
    • Add the sweet corn to the mushrooms, followed by a pinch of salt and the 3 tablespoons of Britannia Mexican Chilli Cheese Spread. Stir well to combine, ensuring the cheese melts and coats the mushrooms and corn evenly.
    • Once everything is well mixed and heated through, turn off the heat and set the mixture aside.
  2. Toast the Bread:

    • Butter the whole wheat brown bread slices generously on one side.
    • Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and place the buttered side of the bread slices onto the pan. Flip the slices after a couple of minutes to toast both sides until they are golden brown and crispy.
    • Once done, remove the bread from the pan and place it on a serving platter.
  3. Assemble the Open Toast:

    • Spoon the cheesy mushroom and corn mixture generously over each slice of toasted bread.
    • Garnish with finely chopped parsley leaves for a fresh and vibrant touch.
  4. Serve and Enjoy:

    • Serve your Cheesy Mushroom & Corn Open Toast hot, paired with a refreshing cup of espresso or your favorite beverage.
    • This dish makes for an ideal snack or appetizer, perfect for tea time or casual gatherings.

Tips for the Best Open Toast:

  • For extra flavor, add a dash of black pepper or chili flakes to the mushroom filling for an added kick.
  • If you prefer a creamier texture, you can substitute the cheese spread with a cream cheese spread or add a dollop of sour cream.
  • Experiment with different herbs like thyme or oregano for a unique twist on the flavor profile.

This Cheesy Mushroom & Corn Open Toast is an easy-to-make, nutritious, and filling dish that combines comfort with a burst of flavor. Perfect for tea time or as a side dish for a light meal, it’s sure to be a crowd-pleaser for anyone who loves a savory, cheesy delight!
