Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

4 kaiser or hard rolls

4 large portobello mushrooms -- stemmed

6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons fresh thyme

OR chopped rosemary leaves

2 cloves garlic -- minced very fine

1 small lemon

salt & freshly ground black pepper

1 large tomato -- sliced (optional)

mayonnaise -- (optional)

 

Preheat the broiler.

 

Slice the kaiser rolls in half and hollow out; save the bread crumbs for another

use. Brush the inside of the rolls with a little oil, and broil, oiled side up,

until lightly toasted. Set aside.

 

For best results, although this isn't necessary, trim away most of the dark

gills on the underside of each mushrooms cap. Brush the trimmed sides

generously with olive oil, and sprinkle with the thyme and garlic.

 

Place the caps, trimmed side up, under the broiler for about 3 minutes; turn the

caps over and broil for another 2 minutes. Since broilers vary, keep your eye

on the mushrooms. Remove the caps from broiler, turn gills side up, and season

with a small squeeze of lemon juice and salt & pepper to taste.

 

Place each cap on a roll bottom. Top with the tomato slices an mayonnaise, if

desired. Cover with the roll top. Serve warm.
