Ingredients

  • 300 g Oyster Mushrooms
  • 300 g Brown Mushrooms

…for the marinade…
2 tbsp Vegetable Oil
2 tsp Garlic Cloves grated or 1garlic powder
1 Lemon Juice
1 tbsp Maple Syrup
1/2 tbsp Paprika
1 tsp Sumac
1 tsp Oregano
1 tsp Parsley
Salt
Pepper

Instructions

  • Clean the mushrooms with a damp cloth just enough to remove the dirt.
  • Place in a big bowl (better if glass) and season with all the ingredients of the marinade.
  • Stir well with a spoon making sure to coat all the mushrooms with the spices.
  • Place a weight on top (a plate with a few cans will do the trick) and refrigerate overnight.
  • Remove the weight and give the mushrooms a thorough stir.
  • Arrange in skewers (4 large, or 6-8 medium/small) alternate the two types of mushrooms.
  • Cook on the barbecue for around 20 minutes (or to your liking) turning the souvlaki often.
  • Serve immediately with some vegan tzatziki sauce, your favourite salad and some pita bread.

Notes

  • You can also cook these mushroom souvlaki over the grill or a hot skillet for 20 minutes flipping them often, or in the oven at 220°C (430°F) preferably on grill mode until slightly charred.
  • I do not recommended to eat these souvlaki cold or at room temperature.
