Jamie Oliver'S Ultimate Mushroom Bruschetta - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    extra virgin olive oil
    11 ounces mixed wild mushrooms, wiped clean
    2 garlic cloves (1 peeled and finely chopped, the other halved)
    2 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves picked
    2 sprigs fresh parsley, leaves picked
    1 sprig summer savory, leaves plucked (optional)
    sea salt
    fresh ground black pepper
    1 dried red chili, crumbled
    1 small pat butter
    1 lemon
    2 slices sourdough bread
Preparation
    Put a large heavy frying pan, big enough to hold all the mushrooms in one layer, over heat and add about 1-2 tbls. olive oil. Slice the larger mushrooms up, and leave the smaller ones whole. Add them all to the pan and give it a shake to toss the mushrooms in the oil.
    Add the chopped garlic and fresh herbs and shake the pan again. Add a pinch of salt and pepper and the crumbled chili, add to the pan and fry gently for a few minutes. If the mixture becomes dry, pour in a little more oil.
    Once the mushrooms have started to turn a golden color, after about 3-4 minutes, add the butter and a nice squeeze of lemon juice(not too much) and toss again.
    To finish this off and make it into a creamy sauce, spoon 2-3 tablespoons of water into the pan. Simmer for a little longer, until you have a nice simple sauce that just loosely coats the mushrooms.
    Now toast your bread.
    Rub the toast with the cut side of the remaining clove of garlic. Place each slice on a serving plate, pile the mushrooms and the creamy juices from the pan on top and dig inches Enjoy!
