In this recipe, I’ll be sharing the different ingredients for air fryer stuffed mushrooms that you can choose from, some tips, and don’t miss out on the cleaning method.

 

How to clean mushrooms?

Before starting with the recipe let’s see how to clean the mushroom.

Cleaning the mushroom is easy, you just need to rinse them under cold water and remove all the dirt and you’re good to go.

You should only rinse them if you’re planning to cook them right away. They’ll be slimy if you’ll store them after rinsing.

You can simply remove the dirt and junk by using a damp cloth and store it for later.

 

How to prepare mushrooms for stuffing?

After rinsing the mushrooms, you need to pat dry completely and the next step is to prepare mushrooms for stuffing.

You need a hollow space in the mushroom for your stuffing. For that take off the stem of the mushrooms.

The trick to do so is gently pushing against the stem and you’ll hear a crack sound and it’s loose. You might fail for the first time but it gets easy once you’ve practiced on a few.

Don’t throw away the stem, save them to make vegetable broth.
