Lion's Mane Mushroom "Crab" Cakes
Source: Local Roots subscriber Stephanie Wright (Entered by Boo Hanson)This recipe is an excellent way to enjoy crab cakes without the crab! When cooked, lion’s mane mushrooms have a very similar texture to that of lobster or crab, but without the meat. It is a prime choice for vegetarians, or just anyone looking to try something new with delicious, fresh mushrooms.
Serves: 2-3
Vegetarian!
Ingredients
1/2 pound
lion's mane mushrooms
2 tablespoons
extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons
Greek yogurt (or mayonnaise)
1 cup
breadcrumbs
1
egg
2-3 tablespoons
fresh, chopped parsley
3-4 tablespoons
coconut oil (or alternative) for cooking the cakes
lime juice from 1/4 lime
salt and pepper to taste
Step by Step Instructions
- Slice lion's mane mushroom into large pieces. Toss in olive oil and roast in oven at 350 degrees for 30-40 mins. Turn halfway through. The mushroom will shrink substantially as the water cooks out.
- When ready, put mushroom food processor and pulse 4-5 times until mix is broken down in smaller chunks.
- In a separate bowl mix together the egg, Greek yogurt, lime, chopped parsley, salt and pepper. Use a whisk to evenly mix the wet ingredients. Add breadcrumbs and pulsed mushroom mixture.
- Use an ice cream scoop or tablespoon (depending on the desired size of the crab cakes) to measure equal portions of crab cakes. With your hands, form into cakes.
- Heat coconut oil in non-stick pan on medium heat and fry until lightly browned on both sides.
- Finish with a touch of sea salt.
