I never thought of doing that. Must try it. What a great idea. :D
 
Fantastic idea Chef Perroquet!
 
I didn't get 3 Michelin tyres for nothing :D
 
I used to do this when I was on the Keto diet, works great as long as you make sure to drain them on a bit of kitchen roll so the mushroom juice doesn't drip everywhere 🙂
 
Yeah, l didn't do that. Ended up in a right mess.😱
 
It will be a very cold day in hell before I eat a burger wrapped in fungus.....

Im with you on that one!!! Cant stand mushrooms.
 
I love mushrooms but wouldn't eat a burger like that. I am happy with a burger on its own with salad. Don't need a bun or any substitute. Personal choice I guess
 
It was an experiment for me. Thought it would be too much mushroom, but was actually rather nice. I do make low carb bread as well, which was also very nice with a burger. More hassle though.
 
I love mushrooms, should have been a hobbit. My faves are mushroom Stroganoff and grilled mushies on toast with a wee touch of mushroom ketchup, or Maggi, or paprika depending on the mood. Must try the burger idea, it sounds yummy to me.
 
was the mushroom raw, or cooked? 🙂
 
Yes, it was cooked. Is it safe to eat raw mushrooms?
