Ingredients

• 500 grams Cremini mushrooms
• 200 ml Coconut milk
• 60 ml Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon Lime juice
• 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger
• 3 cloves Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Chili paste
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
• 12 pieces Bamboo skewers

Directions

Step 1

Begin by cleaning the cremini mushrooms. Wipe each mushroom with a damp cloth and trim the stems if needed. Set aside.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine coconut milk, soy sauce, brown sugar, lime juice, grated fresh ginger, minced garlic, chili paste, vegetable oil, and salt. Whisk until the sugar is dissolved and the marinade is well combined.

Step 3

Add the mushrooms to the marinade and toss to coat them evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and allow the mushrooms to marinate for at least 20 minutes, up to 1 hour if time permits.

Step 4

While the mushrooms are marinating, soak the bamboo skewers in water to prevent them from burning during cooking.

Step 5

After marination, thread the mushrooms onto the soaked skewers, evenly dividing the mushrooms among the skewers.

Step 6

Preheat a grill pan or barbecue grill over medium heat. Lightly oil the grill grates.

Step 7

Place the mushroom skewers on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until the mushrooms are tender and grill marks appear.

Step 8

Remove the skewers from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter.

Step 9

Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.

Step 10

Serve the nut-free satay mushrooms hot, perhaps alongside a fresh salad or as an appetizer.
