Oyster Mushroom Curry Salad Sandwich

15 min

Meal
We love to make and enjoy curries, and for this recipe, we created a spreadable curry that you can enjoy in a sandwich! The recipe was inspired by a Dutch spread called "kip kerrie". The traditional spread uses chicken, so instead, we've called on the naturally meaty texture of mushrooms. The lightly caramelized mushrooms, together with the tropical taste of pineapple, and the impressive flavours from curry powder makes this a unique and wonderfully flavourful sandwich to enjoy for lunch or dinner.

Directions

Click:

  1. Heat a medium pan over medium-high heat. To the pan, add the oil, garlic, and shallot. Cook for 2 - 3 minutes.
  2. Using your hands, peel the mushrooms into small strips, and add them to the pan, along with the salt. Cook while stirring occasionally for 3 minutes.
  3. To the pan, add the cumin, coriander, ginger, and pepper, and cook for another 3 minutes. By now, the liquid from the mushrooms should have evaporated. When it has, transfer the mushroom mixture into a medium bowl.
  4. Add to the bowl the pineapple, mayo, yogurt, curry powder, mustard, and coriander. Give it a stir so everything is well combined.
  5. To assemble the sandwich, begin with a slice of your favourite bread. Layer it with lettuce, tomato slices, the mushroom curry mixture, and top it with some green onions. Enjoy!

Storage

  • The mushroom curry salad filling can be stored, separately from the bread and toppings such as lettuce and tomatoes, in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Made it for my lunch and couldn't find tinned pineapples or oyster mushrooms so ended up using portobello mushrooms and tinned peach! Not sure I'd always make the peach swap, but the mushrooms were a great switch!

Thanks for the lovely tip, Helenbella! We haven't tested these out, but perhaps mango or green apples with a dash lemon or lime juice for acidity may be another substitute for the pineapple if you're feeling adventurous to experiment 🙂
