VEGAN AGUACHILE VERDE RECIPE

7-8 King Oyster Mushrooms 2 Cucumbers, peeled 1 Red onion Salt and pepper to taste

STEP 1

Clean mushrooms with a damp towel, do not wash them since it will change the texture of the mushroom. Cut the mushroom stems, you can cut the top as well but I like the texture. Shred them with two forks so they have a "shredded chicken" look. Add to a large bowl.

STEP 2

Cut the cucumbers in half, take out the insides, and cut them so they resemble a “c” shape, slice thinly. Reserve cucumber insides. Cut the onion into thin slices. Add cucumbers and onions to the bowl.

STEP 3

STEP 4

Pour serrano salsa over mushroom mix add, the nori and stir to combine. Marinate for 2 – 4 hours. Squeeze additional lime juice if needed, I like it very citrusy but this is optional. After the marinating time is done add salt to taste, and top with avocado and extra cilantro.

• It might seem like this is way too much lime juice, but I promise it’s not. • You can reduce the amount of chiles if you can’t take the heat. • If mushrooms aren’t your thing you can make aguachile with hearts of palm. • Serve this with tostadas, avocado, and a nice cold beer.
