Subtitles section Play video Print subtitles Champiñones al Ajillo is a Spanish dish that translates to "mushrooms with garlic." It is a simple yet flavor-packed tapa that primarily features mushrooms sautéed in olive oil, generously flavored with garlic and sometimes enhanced with a splash of white wine or lemon juice and a sprinkle of parsley. The dish is often served hot, right off the skillet, as an appetizer or part of a larger tapas spread. Mushrooms are the centerpiece of this dish for several reasons. First, their earthy flavor perfectly complements the sharp, aromatic garlic, creating a harmonious blend that makes the dish memorable. Second, their meaty texture provides a satisfying bite that contrasts well with the richness of the olive oil and the pungency of the garlic. Lastly, mushrooms are excellent at absorbing flavors, acting as sponges that soak up the garlic and olive oil, delivering a concentrated taste
