Ingredients

  • 300 g Oyster Mushrooms
  • 300 g Brown Mushrooms

...for the marinade...

  • 2 tablespoon Vegetable Oil
  • 2 teaspoon Garlic Cloves grated or 1garlic powder
  • 1 Lemon Juice
  • 1 tablespoon Maple Syrup
  • ½ tablespoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Sumac
  • 1 teaspoon Oregano
  • 1 teaspoon 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.
