Ingredients
  

  • 600 g portobello mushrooms 8-9 pieces
  • 2 eggplants
  • 1 onion
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 1 tbsp concentrated tomato sauce
  • 50 g ground walnuts
  • tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp vegetable broth seasoning
  • a pinch of black pepper
  • 1 tsp sweet paprika powder
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika powder
  • 2 fresh tomatoes

Instructions
 

  • Wash the mushrooms and remove the stems. Finely chop the stems and set them aside for the sauce.
  • Place the cleaned mushrooms without stems on a baking tray with the stem-side down and bake in the oven at 180°C (356°F) for about 7 -10 minutes or until they start releasing their liquid. Remove them from the oven, add a bit salt if wished and turn them stem-side up.
  • While the mushrooms are in the oven, start preparing the sauce. In a medium-sized pot, sauté the chopped onion and chopped mushroom stems in a bit of water until they soften.
  • Wash the eggplants, remove the stems, and dice them into approximately 1 cm-sized cubes.
  • Add the cut eggplants to the pot with onion and mushroom stems, add salt, black pepper, sweet and smoked paprika powder, and sauté for about 10-15 minutes or until the eggplant softens. Try not to add more water, as eggplants will release some while cooking.
  • Add concentrated tomato sauce, vegetable broth seasoning, crushed garlic, and sauté for another 5 minutes while stirring. Finally, add ground walnuts and mix.
  • Once the sauce is ready, use it to stuff the mushrooms.
  • Slice the tomatoes into rounds and place one round on top of each mushroom stuffed with the sauce.
  • Place the stuffed mushrooms back in the oven and bake for about 10 minutes or until the mushrooms become tender when pierced with a fork.
  • Sprinkle with parsley and serve warm. Optionally, you can sprinkle some cashew "parmesan" on top.

Tips and Info

Serve stuffed mushrooms over fresh spinach leaves or on top of whole-grain rice, quinoa, or even over whole-grain polenta. You can use the same sauce to stuff regular button mushrooms.
