Ingredients

  • 300g fresh shiitake mushrooms
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 8 small corn tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded purple cabbage
  • 1/2 cup pickled red onions
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro
  • 1 lime cut into wedges
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil

Instructions

1
First, gently wipe the shiitake mushrooms clean and slice them into thin, uniform strips.
2
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the white miso, maple syrup, soy sauce, and sesame oil until a smooth, velvety glaze forms.
3
Heat the avocado oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
4
Add the mushrooms in a single layer and sear undisturbed for 3-4 minutes to achieve a deep, golden-brown crust.
5
Pour the miso-maple glaze over the mushrooms, tossing rapidly for 60 seconds until they are sticky, caramelized, and fragrant.
6
Warm your corn tortillas on an open flame or dry pan.
7
Assemble by layering a generous heap of crispy mushrooms onto each tortilla, topped with a vibrant crunch of shredded cabbage, pickled onions, and a sprinkle of cilantro.
8
Serve immediately with a squeeze of fresh lime juice to balance the savory notes.
