Okay, perhaps not the most visually impressive meal ever. But it sure was delicious.
I tend to prefer using natural ingredients like mushrooms and nuts rather than artificial / highly processed meat substitutes when cooking vegetarian or vegan meals.
This was not terribly difficult or complex to make (finely chopping the mushrooms took a while though). I definitely recommend giving this recipe a try even if you’re not vegan.
You can try grinding peanuts or other nuts to powder and salting them slightly. It comes close enough to the texture/look/taste, but obviously not a 100% replacement. Works reasonably well for salads too.
