This is a quick recipe and you can use almost any kind of mushrooms. My friend Ludmila showed me how to do this, but I don't know where she learned it. Lyuda is a world champion pancake maker and one day she invited Sveta and I to her house for pancakes. Actually, we invited ourselves, but Luda was gracious enough to prepare an enormous stack of pancakes and even knocked up a quick pot of mushroom and cheese soup to keep us happy while the pancakes were frying.
1/2 kg of mushrooms
2 or 3 potatoes
1 onion
2-3 cloves of garlic
A few black peppercorns, crushed
A small tub of cream cheese or cheese spread (about 200g)
Salt
Olive oil
Peel and chop the potatoes and boil in about 1.5 litres of salted water until the potatoes are soft. While the potatoes are cooking, fry the chopped mushrooms, onions and garlic in olive oil until all the water has come out of the mushrooms and evaporated.
Add the fried mushrooms to the pan of water and potatoes, then add the cheese. Heat gently and stir until the cheese has melted. Season with pepper and, if necessary, a little more salt.
