Ingredients

  • 2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 3 tbsp plant-based mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp ketchup
  • 0.5 tsp dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp hot sauce
  • 1 tbsp pickle juice (from a jar of pickles), plus sliced pickles to serve
  • 2 (150g) packs shiitake or oyster mushrooms
  • 4 tbsp unsalted plant-based butter, melted
  • 2 tbsp olive oil, for frying
  • 1 tsp plain flour
  • 4 tomatoes, 2 diced, 1 thinly sliced
  • 2 vegan hot dog rolls, split open and lightly toasted
  • 1 little gem lettuce, shredded

Method

  • Step 1

    To make the spice blend, combine the smoked paprika, garlic and onion powders, black pepper, thyme and salt in a bowl and mix well.

  • Step 2

    For the remoulade, mix the mayo, ketchup, mustard, hot sauce and pickle juice with ½ tsp of the spice blend; set aside.

  • Step 3

    Toss the mushrooms in the butter, then dip them into the remaining spice blend, turning until coated.

  • Step 4

    Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a high heat. Fry the mushrooms for 3-4 mins until golden. Remove to a plate lined with kitchen paper.

  • Step 5

    Keeping the pan on the heat, stir in the flour with a wooden spoon, then add the diced tomatoes and a splash of water. Stir for 2 mins to make a relish; season with salt.

  • Step 6

    To assemble the buns, spread them with the relish; top with lettuce, sliced tomatoes, mushrooms, a few sliced pickles and a drizzle of remoulade.
