  • 1 red onion – peeled and finely sliced
  • 1/4 cucumber – diced
  • 3-4 tblsp vegan mayonnaise
  • few sprigs fresh parsley
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika

Teriyaki Mushrooms:

  • 2 tblsp liquid aminos or soy sauce
  • 2 tblsp maple or agave syrup (or light brown sugar)
  • 2 tblsp bourbon whiskey
  • 1 clove garlic – peeled and minced
  • 1 tsp rice wine vinegar

  • 1 tblsp sesame oil
  • 17 ounces (500g) chestnut mushrooms – thickly sliced

To serve:

Instructions

  1. To make the coleslaw put the shredded cabbage, sliced onion, and diced cucumber in a large bowl
  2. Add the vegan mayonnaise, chopped fresh parsley and smoked paprika and stir well. Taste and add salt and pepper as needed
  3. To make the teriyaki sauce put the aminos, syrup, bourbon, garlic, vinegar and water in a small saucepan and gently bring to the boil
  4. In a small bowl whisk the cornflour with enough water to make a runny paste - it shouldn't take much, just a tablespoon or so
  5. Add the cornflour paste into the teriyaki sauce and whisk until the sauce thickens and turns clear
  6. Heat the sesame oil in a frying pan until hot then saute the mushrooms. Allow them to caramelise on the bottom before stirring
  7. Once the mushrooms are cooked stir in the teriyaki sauce and keep warm
  8. To build the tacos, layer on the shredded lettuce, top with the coleslaw then top with the warm teriyaki mushrooms and a sprinkle of sesame seeds
  9. Fold the tortilla and enjoy!
