    A simple tasty starter. My husband loved this and I would make it again.

    did this with the mushroom and goats cheese tartlets, for dinner so did them in the oven for 15 mins before adding the mixture. I also added some mushrooms that had been sweated in olive oil, and I substituted the chedder for Parmigiano Reggiano Cheese and put thin slivers on the top. Also added mushroom ketchup to the egg/cheese mixture. The mixture tends to just drip out of the mushrooms, next time will prob add onions to the egg mixture, maybe along with some find bread crumbs to help keep the mixture inside the mushrooms better. Would probably only do this again for breakfast/brunch as part of a cooked breakfast with maybe some beef tomatoes and venison sausages.

    This was tasty! Mushrooms and cheese go together wonderfully! The mixture is a little loose so I served the rarebit on some toast.

    I wasn't too impressed with this. I stuck to the recipe given and made them for lunch one saturday with some grilled bacon on the side. I didn't think the egg texture of the filling went very well with the mushroom. I thought the flavours and textures clashed. Also, a lot of the filling spilled over the side of the mushroom because it was quite loose. Not something I will make again. I think I'd rather stick to the simpler yet tastier mozarella or goats cheese stuffings.

    Worcestershire sauce isn't usually suitable for vegetarians -- just thought I'd mention that.

    Fab! I enjoyed this a lot. I used a vegetarian Worcester Sauce made by Biona - it only needs a tiny bit of this.

    This recipe isn't vegetarian. Worcestershire sauce has anchovies in it!

    This recipe was fabulous & so simple too! I simply made an omelette mix of my choice, including spinach, fetta cheese, pesto, herbs, spices, tasty cheese, spring onions chopped up finely, mustard and spooned it into the mushroom caps, then grilled. It was really tasty and such a great combination of textures. I will be making this dish again....probably quite ofen. Field mushrooms are not always available, but when they are, this will be a favourite recipe for them. Any combination omelette mix of choice would work well with this dish. A great recipe...thank you!

    I LOVED this! Very tasty but DOES need a bit of breadcrumb to hold together. Will make again.

    Delicious. Having read the comments above I added breadcrumbs and popped the mushrooms in the oven for about five mins before filling and grilling.

    Like others, used some bread crumbs so that it wasn't too runny. It made a pleasant starter. I will cook it again but as a lunchtime snack.

    Easy recipe for an impressive dish. I added finely chopped cooked red onion and served as a dinner party starter last night - clean plates all round! Will definitely make again.
