Barbecued Lion’s Mane Skewers with Harissa and Preserved Lemon

These delicious Middle Eastern inspired Lion's Mane skewers are perfect on a barbecue, served alongside other barbecue treats, in a pitta, or with couscous - your shout.

Works best with: Lion's Mane

Serves: 3-4

Ingredients

  • 2-3 large Lion's Mane mushrooms
  • 8 preserved lemons, pips removed
  • 3 tbsp oil
  • 2 tsp sea salt flakes (1 tsp if using fine sea salt)
  • 90g rose harissa
  • freshly ground pepper, to taste

Method

  • Put all the ingredients, except the Lion's Mane, into a small food processor and whiz until well mixed but still coarse. If you don't have a food processor, just cut everything up as small as you can
  • Break up the Lion's Mane into walnut-sized chunks, approx 3cm
  • Place the Lion's Mane into a bowl and pour over the marinade
  • Gently mix the Lion's Mane into the marinade until everything is coated
  • If you have time, cover and place in the fridge for up to 2 hours to allow the flavours to mingle
  • Thread the Lion's Mane onto skewers 
  • Cook on a barbecue, turning regularly, until pleasantly charred (but not burnt!)
