Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 tablespoon hoisin sauce

1 teaspoon tamari soy sauce

1/2 teaspoon dark soy sauce (or another 1/2 tsp tamari)

1/4 teaspoon chipotle hot sauce -- (or other hot sauce) (1/4 to 1/2)

1 1/2 pounds portabella mushrooms -- " gills " removed, sliced into 1 "

pieces

1/2 teaspoon olive oil -- (1/2 to 1)

couple pinches sea salt

couple pinches fresh ground black pepper

1 cup green onions -- (mostly green portion), cut into 1 "

strips

 

Sidebars:

Don't overcook these portabellas; they are best when they are still " meaty " and

plump, with their natural juices sealed in.

 

Serve these mushrooms over baked yams! Bake yams in their skins until soft,

then slice lengthwise and top with the mushrooms (start cooking the mushrooms

once yams are already soft). The sweetness of the yams is a nice contrast to the

spiciness of the mushrooms. You could also use these mushrooms in a simple fresh

pasta dish (tossed with olive oil, lemon juice, and cilantro, for instance), or

on top of " Parmesan Toasts, " (p. 67), or to top " Savory Tofu Burgers " (p. 116).

 

In a large bowl, mix hoisin sauce, tamari, soy sauce, and hot sauce. Add

mushrooms and gently toss to coat evenly in a large, preferably deep skillet,

heat the oil on high heat and season with sea salt and black pepper. Add

mushrooms and allow one side to sear for a couple of minutes, then flip to sear

the other side. Add green onions and just lightly cook them. Toss mushrooms

again, then remove from heat. Makes 3-4 servings.
