Pork mushroom is basically pork cooked with mushroom gravy sauce. Mashed potato on the other hand is a famous appetizer and/or side dish together with a gravy sauce. Combining these two dishes is a good way to re-invent a common dish to become part of food choices for catering services. The dish is called Baked Pork Mushroom with Cheesy Mashed Potato.
The preparation and cooking of this food is a bit time-consuming because you have to do three procedures before getting the final dish. This might take you longer time while cooking. But rest assured that the wait is worth it.
