Ingredients:
- scant 1oz (25g) dried porcini mushrooms
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped

Directions:
- Soak the porcini mushrooms in 11/4 cups boiling water for 30 minutes.
- Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over low heat. Add the onion, and sweat gently for 5 minutes until soft. Season with sea salt and pepper.
