Mixed Mushroom Foil Bake

One of my favourite easy meals to prepare (and forget about) is a foil bake. This mixed mushroom foil bake has my favourite mushrooms in it with a nice kick of umami from the miso paste and soy sauce. You’re free to use any mushrooms of choice but I used a mix of king oyster, brown shimeji, and enoki mushrooms.

📝 Ingredients

• 14.5 oz mixed mushroom of choice
• 1 small white onion (thinly sliced)
• 2 tbsp soy sauce
• 2 tbsp mirin (see notes for sub)
• 1 tbsp sake (see notes for sub)
• 1 tbsp miso paste (i used white miso)
• 1/2 tbsp minced garlic
• 1 tbsp vegan butter
• Green onions or scallions (for topping)
• More soy sauce (to taste if needed)
• Chili sauce or garlic chili oil
• Steamed rice
• Pickled radish

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1If using an oven, preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Prepare a sheet of aluminum foil. Mine was around 14x18 inches. Place the sheet over a deep plate or bowl and lightly press down.
2. 2Slice and/or break apart your mushrooms of choice. Thinly slice the onion. Place the mushrooms and onion in over the foil.
3. 3Add the soy sauce, mirin, miso paste, sake, garlic, and butter. Mix well with the mushrooms.
4. 4Scrunch the sides of the foil together and upward until you form a pouch with an opening only at the top. Seal the pouch well to prevent the sauce from seeping out during cooking.
5. 5If baking: Leave to bake for 30-35 minutes or until cooked to your liking.
6. 6If air-frying: Place the foil wrap in your air-fryer basket and leave to cook for 15-18 minutes at 350°F (180°C) - note that air fryer settings can vary, so be sure to adjust as needed.
7. 7After cooking, you can leave it to sit for around 5 minutes before opening the pouch. You can finish yours with more soy sauce to taste, if needed, and other seasoning of choice. I added some chopped green onions and garlic chilli oil to mine. I enjoyed mine with steamed rice and some pickled radish on the side.
