The recipe has some omissions but nothing that can't be figured out just from reading it, duh! Shallots are clearly preferred over green onions in the "or" section so use them or use white onion really for best results. The mushrooms obviously must come in between the shallots and barley in the directions so put on your big girl panties and figure it out - add them to the butter mixture and sautee them a few minutes. Humans make editing errors, get over it. My only gripe with this recipe is that it has the recipe put into a casserole dish that is never actually baked. Casserole dishes don't heat evenly on the stove because of their shape, they are meant to be baked in (ie the oven). If you aren't going to bake this then just use a saucepan. Overall I really enjoyed the flavor but didn't care for the directions that had corners of the dish undercooked whereas a saucepan would have had it evenly cooked

The instruction to cook the green onions on a low heat for 5-7 minutes until 'gold brown' is illogical,because there is no way you can saute them on a low heat for that amount of time and get them golden. Also, we aren't told when to add the mushrooms, which is a critical omission!
