One of my favourite easy meals to prepare (and forget about) is a foil bake. This mixed mushroom foil bake has my favourite mushrooms in it with a nice kick of umami from the miso paste and soy sauce. You’re free to use any mushrooms of choice but I used a mix of king oyster, brown shimeji, and enoki mushrooms.
PREPARING THIS MUSHROOM FOIL BAKE
- If using an oven, preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Prepare a sheet of aluminum foil. Mine was around 14×18 inches. Place the sheet over a deep plate or bowl and lightly press down.
- Slice and/or break apart your mushrooms of choice. Thinly slice the onion. Place the mushrooms and onion in over the foil.
- Add the soy sauce, mirin, miso paste, sake, garlic, and butter. Mix well with the mushrooms.
- Scrunch the sides of the foil together and upward until you form a pouch with an opening only at the top. Seal the pouch well to prevent the sauce from seeping out during cooking.
- Leave to bake for 30-35 minutes or place in an air-fryer and cook for 15-18 minutes (note that air fryer settings can vary, so be sure to adjust as needed).
After cooking, you can leave your mushroom foil bake to sit for around 5 minutes before opening the pouch. You can finish yours with more soy sauce to taste, if needed, and other seasoning of choice. I added some chopped green onions and garlic chilli oil to mine. You can find my garlic chilli oil recipe here!
I enjoyed mine with steamed rice and some pickled radish on the side.

Notes
Aluminum Foil
- You can use parchment paper if you don’t cook with foil. If using parchment paper I recommend to place it on a baking dish to catch the liquid from the parchment paper since this can seep out.
Sake/mirin
- You’re free to use other rice wine of choice. If you don’t consume alcohol, you can simply leave this out and add vegetable broth and 1 tsp of sugar instead to the mushrooms since sake/mirin add a nice subtle sweetness to the mushrooms.

I read that you make the mushrooms in your air fryer but I don’t see those instructions. Can you share those steps please
Hi Shelley! I already edited it. For air-frying I left mine for around 15 minutes at 350F or until cooked through. Hope this helps! ◡̈
