Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a medium to large pan over medium-high heat.

- Cook for two to three minutes while mixing constantly.
- Pour the sherry and the water and adjust the heat to medium-high.

Notes
- Cook's Tip #1: Do not use a lot of cloves if you don't like them. Two to three pieces are a good starting point to give just a hint of their flavor to the dish.
- Cook's Tip #2: If you want your sherry mushrooms with more sauce, leave a smaller gap uncovered instead of halfway covered.
