ShroomSpy continues its culinary exploration with a recipe that merges the tender delicacy of Enoki mushrooms with the rich traditions of Middle Eastern cuisine. Our Enoki Mushroom Fatayer is not just a dish; it's a celebration of flavors and textures, promising to be a memorable addition to any meal.

Why Enoki Mushrooms?

Enoki mushrooms, with their long, slender stems and small caps, are not only a visual delight but also offer a mild, sweet taste and a crunchy texture. They absorb flavors wonderfully, making them an excellent ingredient in the Fatayer, adding both nutritional value and a unique taste profile.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups Enoki mushrooms, ends trimmed and separated
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour, plus extra for dusting
  • 1 teaspoon instant yeast
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Warm water, as needed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus extra for greasing
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
  • Lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Dough: In a large bowl, mix the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Gradually add warm water and knead until a soft dough forms. Cover and let it rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until doubled in size.
  2. Cook the Enoki: Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add onions and garlic, sautéing until translucent. Add the Enoki mushrooms, cumin, paprika, coriander, salt, and pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until the mushrooms are soft. Set aside to cool.
  3. Shape the Fatayer: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking sheet with olive oil. On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/8-inch thickness. Cut into circles using a round cutter. Place a spoonful of the mushroom mixture in the center of each circle. Fold the edges over to form a triangle, pinching the corners to seal.
  4. Bake: Place the Fatayer on the prepared baking sheet and brush with olive oil. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
  5. Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
