Vegan (Oyster Mushroom) Calamari

That time I found oyster mushrooms in the market and remembered having seen a vegan “calamari” recipe...

And I couldn’t find the recipe I was originally referring to so I made up my own.

And this is the result ⬆️

🤗🙌🏻☀️

It’s actually pretty simple.

I just took a couple large oyster mushrooms and sliced them into “calamari” looking strips and rounds.

I then mixed together for the breading:

1/4 cup rice flour

1/4 cup oat flour

1/3 cup wholegrain corn flour

Himalayan salt

Cracked black pepper

1/4 tsp garlic powder

I dipped each piece of mushroom into soy milk (Im sure almond milk works just as well) and then in the breadcrumb mix.

Then fried in oil (half seed oil / half olive oil)

Served with fresh parsley and lemon wedges.

It was delicious.

I don’t know what fried #calamari tastes like but I’ve always been drawn to it- the crisp ones of the breading and the lemon. 🍋

So I did this. If you ask me what it tastes like? Fried mushrooms. Really good fried mushrooms

And there you have it.

DM me if you have any questions.

Love and lemons.
