An unusual and tasty little starter, the mushrooms are scrumptious with the melted cheese topping. Gouda cheese, mushrooms and garlic go so well together and whilst this makes a good starter it would be very easy to increase the ingredients to make a larger quantity for a lunch or supper dish. Serve with a green salad and crusty bread.

1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
350g button mushrooms, thinly sliced
