Method

  1. Heat the oven to 200°C. Pull the stalks out of the mushrooms, chop them, and set the caps gill side up on a sprayed tray.

  2. Fry the mince with the chopped stalks and garlic in a sprayed pan over a high heat until it has lost its pink, about five minutes. Add the spinach and stir until it wilts, then take off the heat.

  3. Squeeze any liquid out of the pan, then stir in the ricotta, lemon zest, chilli flakes and salt.

  4. Pile the filling into the caps, top with the parmesan and bake for twenty minutes until the mushrooms have softened and the tops are golden. Serve on the rocket.

Worth knowing

  • Mushrooms give up a lot of water in the oven. A tray rather than a dish lets it evaporate instead of pooling round the filling.
  • Ricotta is the lighter of the soft cheeses at 11% fat. The same 40 g of full-fat mozzarella or goat's cheese adds about 50 kcal.
