Mushrooms have an uncanny ability — much like tofu — to take on whatever flavours and seasonings you fancy. This recipe turns mushrooms into the savoury ‘meat’ of a beloved Middle-Eastern dish.
1Toss the mushrooms, garlic, lemon, sauce, maple syrup and spices until combined.
2Add the olive oil (or water) and mushrooms to a large fry pan over high heat. Sauté until the mushrooms are soft and cooked through. If the spices are cooking too quickly, add a dash of water to the fry pan to slow down the cooking. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3To make the tahini sauce, mix together the tahini, lemon and a dash of water until smooth. Mix in more water for a thinner sauce.
4Top half the pita breads with mushrooms, lettuce, tomato, cucumber and tahini sauce. Fold over the bread to serve.
