In this tasty dish, the mushrooms are caramelized in the sweetness of their own juice and spiked with garlic, coriander, and allspice. The cooked mushrooms are then tossed in whatever pungent fresh herbs are available, usually a mixture of wild oregano, parsley, and mint. It is a recipe used for both cultivated and wild mushrooms, but works best with small, round ones.
