Place the mushroom caps on a baking-tray, with the hollow side down on the baking paper. Brush them gently with some oil, put in the oven for 3-4 minutes, then leave to cool. Drain the liquid from the baked mushroom caps and place them with the hollow side up.

Heat up 1 tbsp of EVOO in a non-stick skillet with chopped garlic Add the chopped stalks, cook until softened. Seasoning with a pinch of salt, black pepper and turmeric, leave to cool. Add the mixture to creamy fresh cheese with chopped baby spinach, stir.

Spoon the mixture into the mushrooms, a drizzle of EVOO, in the oven for further 5 mins or until the top is gilded.

Serve.
