Meanwhile heat a little oil in a pan and add the onion and fry till soft

Season with S&P. You want to keep the slices of mushrooms as whole as you can

7

Add the spinach and allow to wilt as you stir through

You can add a little stock or milk if you think the sauce it too thick

9

Check the potatoes are soft by piercing with a fork,remove from the oven

10

Slice through the middle lenghtways 3/4 of the way through , turn and do the same again so you have a cross cut. Pinch together at the bottom to open them up and
spoon the mixture onto the potatoes,garnish with spring onion and serve.

Serve warm with a side salad for lunch or as a side dish with roast chicken,salmon or any meat you like.

You can skip the 1st step and cook in the microwave but I don't have one so I use the Slow cooker instead.
