  1. Finely chop the onion, mushroom caps and stalks.  Melt the butter in a saucepan and sauté the onion until transparent.  Add the mushrooms and cook for a further 2-3 minutes.  Soak the breadcrumbs in the hot water, then add to the mushrooms with the lemon juice and garlic.  Cook over gentle heat until no free liquid remains.  Off the heat, beat in the remaining ingredients and check seasoning to taste.  Spoon into a serving dish, cover and refrigerate until required.  Garnish with raw mushrooms slices.
  2. This can also be used as a spread or sandwich filling.
