If you’re looking for a hit vegetarian meal to add to your recipe roster, this crispy mushroom shawarma takes the trophy.

Mushrooms absorb other flavours really well, which makes them a beautiful curry ingredient.

Blitz up mushrooms with balsamic vinegar and stir through mayonnaise for a lovely rich dressing on top of tender asparagus. Mushroom mayo works particularly well in side dishes like this, or used as a burger topper. It’s an easy yet impressive way to use up any leftover mushrooms you might have.

*What are the health benefits of mushrooms?

Different mushrooms contain different micronutrients. Most are a source of the B-vitamins riboflavin, niacin and biotin, which metabolic and nervous systems need to function properly. Plus, common mushrooms are a source of folic acid, which is very important for maternal tissue growth during pregnancy, as well as for immune function and blood formation. Raw shiitake, just like most mushrooms, is high in potassium, which is great for muscle growth and keeping our blood pressure at normal levels.

Shiitake mushrooms are also very high in vitamin D, which many of us are deficient in. Our bodies need vitamin D to absorb calcium and phosphorus. Without sufficient vitamin D, our bones and teeth won’t be as strong and healthy as they should be. We get vitamin D from the sun, but in winter, especially here in the UK, it’s helpful to top up from food sources.
