  1. Heat the oil in a large, heavy-based frying pan over a medium heat until hot. Carefully add the mushrooms in a single layer. Cook for 5 mins to brown the edges, then flip and cook for a few more mins until golden; season. Add the lemon and rosemary, tossing to coat well.
  2. Divide the watercress between 2 plates and top with the ‘scallops’. Garnish with the balsamic drizzle and the toasted hazelnuts.
