Ingredients

Units Scale
  • Meaty mushrooms:
  • 500gr oyster mushrooms
  • 12 Tbsp olive oil
  • 3 Tbsp soy/tamari sauce
  • 1/2 tsp barbecue spice (alternatively 1/2 tsp smoked paprika)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • dash of cinnamon (optional)
  • dash of salt & black pepper
  • Vegan tzatziki:
  • 1 cup coconut yogurt
  • 1 cup shredded cucumber, drained (around 1/4 cup after draining)
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 23 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 3 Tbsp fresh dill, chopped
  • salt & pepper, to taste
  • Additional:
  • Lebanese bread/pita
  • lettuce/rocket
  • purple cabbage, sliced
  • tomatoes/cucumber, diced

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 175°C/350°F.
  2. First prepare the mushrooms by pulling them apart into strings (the bigger the strings the chunkier the meat – the mushrooms shrink in size while baking).
  3. Take the strings with your hands (or place them in a kitchen towel) and drain of any excess water.
  4. Place the mushrooms strings into a bowl and add all the spices and oil. Mix together with your hands or a spoon.
  5. Add parchment paper to a baking tin and spread the coated mushrooms on top.
  6. Bake at 175°C/350°F for 20-25 minutes (stirring twice) until golden and crispy.
  7. In the meantime, prepare the tzatziki by mixing all ingredients together.
  8. Once the mushrooms are done, assemble your wraps and enjoy!
