Wild Mushroom Dip
Wild Mushroom Dip - Edward Daniel
“This recipe was inspired when foraging for wild mushrooms in West Foreage one autumn and making my way on a train from London for an adventurous day out,” says Edward.
Ingredients
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 2 shallots
• 2 cloves (of India)

3. Place the shallot and mushroom mixture into a food processor. Roughly chop the mixture.
4. Switch off the processor and add the vinegar and lemon juice and season to taste.
