Tip

I love using seasonal ingredients and mushrooms are abundant at this time of year and so good to eat and keep us healthy! Using the coriander roots increases the flavour. I store these in a container in the freezer to add a flavour punch when needed.Being vegan I make my own Plant based Yoghurt and save some to use in this recipe.

    As a non-mushroom eater I was hesitant to try this but I was surprised how delicious it was. Will definitely be making it.
