Garlic Mushrooms on Toast

This was a totally new recipe for me, but one that I will make again and again. Thanks to Tom Kerridge for providing the base recipe. I made a few tweaks based on the ingredients I prefer, and the resulting dish was equally spectacular! I’m just so thankful I doubled up so I had plenty leftover for the week.
