Mixed Mushroom Foil Bake

Mixed Mushroom Foil Bake

5 from 6 votes
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.

Equipment

  • Aluminum Foil, around 14x18 inches , see notes

Ingredients
 
 

Mushrooms

  • 14.5 oz mixed mushroom of choice
  • 1 small white onion thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp mirin see notes for sub
  • 1 tbsp sake see notes for sub
  • 1 tbsp miso paste i used white miso
  • 1/2 tbsp minced garlic
  • 1 tbsp vegan butter

For serving

  • Green onions or scallions for topping
  • More soy sauce to taste if needed
  • Chili sauce or garlic chili oil , homemade garlic chilli oil recipe here
  • Steamed rice
  • Pickled radish

Instructions
 

  • If using an oven, preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Prepare a sheet of aluminum foil. Mine was around 14x18 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.
  • If baking: Leave to bake for 30-35 minutes or until cooked to your liking.
  • If air-frying: Place the foil wrap in your air-fryer basket and leave to cook for 15-18 minutes at 350°F (180°C) - note that air fryer settings can vary, so be sure to adjust as needed.
  • After cooking, you can leave it 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. 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.
