It’s beyond easy too! All you have to do is dip the mushrooms in egg, then in the crumbs, line them neatly on a baking sheet and pop them into the oven for 25-30 minutes. While you wait for the mushroomy goodness, blitz the ingredients for the tartar sauce together and that’s it.

    1. Thanks! The parmesan gets mixed with the almond crumbs (I seem to have forgotten that to add that step haha – it’s fixed now)! Unfortunately the egg is vital, it “glues” the crumbs to the mushrooms.
