Ingredients

  • 14 medium-large cremini mushrooms
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1/2 tablespoon olive oil optional
  • Pinch of sea salt and ground black pepper

Filling:

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 cup minced shallot
  • 1/2 cup tightly packed diced mushroom stems
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped walnuts
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/8 teaspoon sea salt
  • Pinch of cayenne pepper
  • Pinch of ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon minced fresh dill
  • 1/4 teaspoon truffle oil

Sauce:

  • 2 tablespoons Earth Balance or other plant-based butter
  • 2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon truffle oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon minced fresh dill
  • 1/8 teaspoon sea salt
  • Pinch of ground black pepper

Garnish:

  • 1 1/2 tablespoon minced fresh chives
  • 1 tablespoon minced red bell pepper
  • White sesame seeds

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°. Clean mushrooms with a mushroom brush or a clean, slightly damp cloth. Remove stems. Place 12 of the mushrooms in a small casserole dish or baking sheet. Cut off very bottom portion of stems, and discard. Dice remaining stems, plus the two whole mushrooms if necessary to yield ½ cup, and set aside for use in the filling.
  • Add water, 1 Tbsp lemon juice and ½ tablespoon olive oil, if using, to the pan with mushrooms; toss well. Top with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Prepare filling. Place a small sauté pan over medium-high heat; add 1 Tbsp olive oil. Add shallots, and cook 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add diced mushrooms and remaining filling ingredients, except dill and truffle oil; cook 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Add dill and truffle oil; stir well. Taste, and add more salt if necessary.
  • Stuff mushrooms with filling, place in oven, and bake until mushrooms are just tender, approximately 15–20 minutes, depending on size of mushrooms. After 10 minutes, use a spoon to drizzle some of the liquid in the pan on the mushrooms to keep them moist.
  • While mushrooms are cooking, prepare sauce. Place a small sauté pan over low heat. Add Earth Balance, and allow to melt. Add remaining ingredients and stir well. 
  • When mushrooms are done cooking, carefully place on a serving dish. Drizzle with sauce, and top with chives, red pepper and white sesame seeds before serving.
