Recipe: Simon Toohey
Directions
10 mins to prep
10 mins to cook
-
Step 1
Add plant-based butter to a hot pan over medium-high heat. Fry the yams for 5 minutes in the melted butter with a generous pinch of salt and lots of cracked black pepper (15-20 twists of the grinder!)
-
Step 2
Add the shiitake mushrooms and stock, cover and cook for 5 minutes with lid on.
-
Step 3
Remove the lid and reduce until the liquid is gone. Add the spring onions, stir through just to warm, and remove from heat.
-
Step 4
Transfer to your serving bowl, garnish with a few fresh slices of spring onion and serve with a wedge of lemon.
