Julia's Sauteed Mushrooms

By sybrmom

Ingredients

• 2 Tbsp butter
• 1 Tbsp oil
• 1/2 lb fresh mushrooms, cleaned and left whole if small or quartered if large

Preparation

Step 1

Place a 10" enameled (or non-stick) skillet over high heat with the butter and oil. As soon as you see that the butter foam has begun to subside, indicating it is hot enough, add the mushrooms. Toss and shake the pan for 4 - 5 minutes. During their saute the mushrooms will at first absorb the fat. In 2 to 3 minutes the fat will reappear on their surface and the mushrooms will begin to brown. As soon as they have browned lightly , remove from heat.
