Ingredients

½ pound fresh mushrooms or mushroom stems, minced
1 small onion or 1–2 shallots, minced
1–2 tablespoons butter
Salt
Ground black pepper
Chopped parsley to taste
1 pinch tarragon or thyme (optional)

Method

In a frying pan, sauté the onion in butter until soft but not brown (about 3–5 minutes).
Stir in minced mushrooms, salt, pepper, chopped parsley, and tarragon.
Cook the mixture over medium high heat until the mushrooms give off a lot of liquid; that liquid will evaporate completely (about 5–10 minutes). The duxelles should look like a coarse mash.
Cool the mixture slightly, and taste for seasoning.
