• Add the paprika, stir well, then add the Worcestershire sauce and the mustard, stir well and cook for a further minute, before adding the sour cream.
• Lower the heat, and gently heat the cream through for 1 minute.
• Meanwhile rub the slices of bread with the garlic, cut side down and place place the slices of bread onto a baking sheet, then under a hot grill for 1-2 minutes, on each side, or until toasted and golden.

• Chef's Note: Chestnut mushrooms are a closed cup mushroom with a wonderfully rich flavour. If you cannot find these, use flat field mushrooms which are always great, but may need a little more cooking.
