Recipe Story

I always feel creative when I add ingredients to taste and experiment. This will work well with anything you can saute or stirfry. You adjust the quantities and decide if you prefer the emphasis to be on the bitter or sweet or garlicky side.

Directions

1. Cut up the mushrooms and onions to whatever size you like.
2. If you're using fresh garlic, press the cloves,through a garlic press in the amount that you think will be right. I prefer to use the minced garlic that comes in little jars. It's just easier.
3. Heat the oil. Use only enough to coat the fryinging pan.
4. Throw in the garlic and onions and heat until the onions are soft and wilted.
5. Add the mushrooms and fry for a while. You'll probably have to drain off some liquid.
6. Add the balsamic vinegar and brown sugar and fry until it starts to thicken. The art is in checking the taste every minute or two to see if more garlic, balsamic vinegar or brown sugar tastes better. It can't be bad. The balsmaic vinegar has a sharp taste that the brown sugar cuts and it becomes thick and carmelized. Just keep trying. People love it.
