Philly Cheese Veggie

Inspired by the philly cheese steak. I used portobello mushrooms in this recipe.


Philly steak buns or regular hot dog rolls - 4
Onions - 2
Capsicum - 2
Jalapeños - 2
Portobello mushrooms - 4 (Large)
Tomatoes - 2
Black pepper and salt - to taste
Mozzarella or sharp cheddar cheese - 1 cup
Oil - 1 tbsp

Remove stems and the black parts of the mushrooms. Clean with a damp kitchen towel. Washing the mushrooms tends to make them rubbery.
Slice the onions, capsicum, jalapeños and mushrooms lengthwise. (alternately use pickled jalapeños)
Remove seeds from the tomatoes and slice lengthwise.
In a pan, heat the oil and fry the veggies till soft. Add the tomatoes halfway through.
Season with salt and black pepper.
Slit the rolls and stuff them with the veggies. Top with cheese.
Pop them under the broiler till the rolls are crisp and cheese melts.
Serve with ketchup and mustard or toppings of your choice.
