Garlic Mushroom and Ibérico Ham Pintxo

Javier De La Hormaza
This is a very popular pintxo in the Basque country, the earthy mushrooms work well with the nutty ibérico ham and the garlic oil flavoured with sherry vinegar lifts the whole pintxo up. You can also serve the garlic mushrooms as a tapa with toasted bread!

  • Heat a medium size frying pan, add the oil and cook the mushrooms on a moderate heat to brown them on both sides for 2 minutes. Lower the heat and add the chopped garlic and parsley, season with salt and a good dash of sherry vinegar. Toast the slices of bread under a hot grill.
