Ingredients

• 500 grams button mushrooms (or cremini mushrooms)
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium onion (finely chopped)
• 3 pieces garlic cloves (minced)
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground paprika
• 0.5 teaspoons ground coriander
• 0.5 teaspoons red chili flakes (optional, for heat)
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Clean the mushrooms using a damp cloth or paper towel. Trim the stems if needed and slice the mushrooms evenly to ensure even cooking.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the finely chopped onion to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes until soft and translucent.

Step 4

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute, being careful not to let it burn.

Step 5

Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and stir. Cook for 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden brown and have released most of their liquid.

Step 6

Sprinkle the ground cumin, paprika, coriander, red chili flakes (if using), salt, and black pepper over the mushrooms. Mix well to coat the mushrooms in the spices.

Step 7

Continue to cook for another 2 minutes to let the spices bloom and intensify.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the lemon juice and freshly chopped parsley.

Step 9

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve warm as a side dish or over toasted bread, rice, or pasta.
