In a bowl. mix the breadcrumbs, butter and cheese.

Marinate the olives with olive oil inside out. Then stuff the olive filling first and then the breadcrumb mix on top and press lightly. Repeat this for all the rest of the mushrooms.

For Baking/ Grilling:

Put in a baking tray with parchment paper placed on top and then at 180C bake till the top layer of the stuffing ( breadcrumb mix) becomes light brown in color or you can grill for sometime till brown color appears.

For frying:

In a pan add a little butter (1 tbsp) and then fry the mushroom with the stuffed part facing down first and then reversing. It will take only few mins for this to be done.

I am sending this over for the event Sunday Special conducted by Roshan.

Note :
For healthier verison you can substitue olive oil for butter.
I used cheddar cheese rather than processed cheese.
