Giant mushrooms make a great, easy vegan burger or steak replacement.
INGREDIENTS
For the Marinade
- 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tsp olive oil
- Pinch salt
For the burger
- 4 large mushroom caps
- Burger buns (optional)
METHOD
- Whisk all the sauce ingredients together in a bowl
- In a rectangular container place the Mushies top side down
- Pour the marinade over and allow to marinate for at least 2 hours
- Grill on the braai for 5 minutes on each side, turning 4 times
- You can serve these up with a bun garnished with lettuce, grilled onion, and tomato or chilli sauce and whatever other yum things you love on burgers, or you can use it as the mains to replace meat.
You can also use this marinade for veggie sosaties – dice veggies such as mushrooms, baby marrows, onions and peppers, marinate and arrange on a skewer to grill on the braai. You can remove the veggies from the skewer and make a yum veggie hotdog with them too.
Cauliflower also marinates beautifully with this, chop, marinate and braai some cauliflower steaks. That simple!
