Appetisers:
There is long list of appetisers that can please the taste buds of your guests and entice them to enjoy the main menu. To give you an example, stuffed hard boiled eggs and mushrooms is really good option to serve as appetiser. You just need to pick mushrooms, separate their caps and stems, grill the caps and fry the stems and then use mixture of stems and vegetables as filler for caps. However, it is better to create something new by using your imagination. -
