Editor's Pick #4: Veggie or not, here I come! Miso Roasted Mushrooms

Editor's note: Okay so not only does this selection have one of the best titles on the blog, it's also one of the best and quickest lunch ideas for anyone who's a fan of mushrooms. A large number of us are working from home at the moment, so if you're not having the best day on video calls, take a break and treat yourself to some amazing flavours before heading back to 'the office' - not a mushroom pun in sight. The jokes aren't for everyone but they do grow on you.


Veggie or not, here I come!

Miso roasted mushrooms


Serves 4

250g chestnut mushrooms, sliced


3 tbsps miso paste

2 tsps soy sauce

2 tbsps mirin

1 tbsp dark soft brown sugar


Mix the ingredients thoroughly into a marinade. Box and set aside. Add the marinade to the mushrooms an hour before roasting to give it time to infuse, use a strong plastic food bag.

When you're ready to cook, pre-heat your oven 150fan/170c/Gas 3.

Place your marinaded mushrooms into a foil tray and roast for 15-20 minutes.


In case you're not familiar with miso paste, I used brown rice miso - it is available in most large supermarkets.


It's up to you what you do


You can roast the mushrooms the day before but reduce the

time to 10 minutes and then either re-heat in the oven for 10 minutes

or warm through in a small saucepan whilst making the

orzotto


Here's what to expect :

the marinaded mushrooms


then roasted


and served


Ta dah!
