Ingredients
  

  • 16 ounces package Big Mountain Foods Lions Mane Crumble or Cauli Crumble Veggie Grounds
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • 12 ounces fresh mushrooms wiped clean and chopped small
  • 1 small tomato chopped ((or 1/2 cup canned diced tomato)
  • 1 tablespoon sweet paprika
  • 1 teaspoon caraway seed
  • 1 teaspoon coriander
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill chopped
  • sea salt and fresh ground pepper to taste
  • juice of 1 lemon

to garnish:

  • additional chopped dill
  • chopped cilantro
  • a dollop of plain unsweetened vegan yogurt or cashew cream if desired

Instructions
 

  • In a skillet, preferably cast iron, heat oil over medium-high heat. When it starts to shimmer, add minced garlic and optional red pepper flakes. Give them a stir and let them dance around for a minute, releasing their fragrance. When garlic starts to soften and turn golden, add the fresh mushrooms.
  • Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms darken, shrink and start to release their liquid, creating their own broth— about 8 to 10 minutes. Add chopped tomatoes, paprika, caraway and coriander. Stir in Big Mountain Foods Lion’s Mane Crumble or Cauli Crumble Veggie Grounds and combine
  • Cook for another 5 minutes or so, letting flavors meld and the sauce thicken and reduce.
  • Just before serving, scatter in the chopped dill and stir in in lemon juice. Season to taste with sea salt and pepper.
  • Garnish as desired.
