Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

cooking spray
1 ¼ pounds cremini mushrooms, trimmed
1 ¼ pounds shiitake mushrooms, trimmed
½ onion, coarsely chopped
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons ground coriander
1 clove garlic, smashed
½ teaspoon ground cardamom
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1 (15 ounce) can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
¾ cup boxed falafel mix
¾ cup coarsely chopped cilantro
½ cup coarsely chopped parsley
1 egg
1 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a loaf pan with cooking spray.
  • Combine cremini mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, onion, cumin, coriander, garlic, and cardamom in a large bowl. Place half of the mushroom mixture in a food processor; pulse until coarsely chopped. Repeat with remaining mushroom mixture.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add half of the chopped mushroom mixture; cook, stirring occasionally, until the edges begin to crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Repeat with remaining oil and mushroom mixture.
  • Pulse cannellini beans in the food processor until coarsely chopped; add to the bowl with cooked mushroom mixture. Add falafel mix, cilantro, parsley, egg, and salt. Stir gently to combine. Spoon mixture into the prepared loaf pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until edges are browned and the center is completely set, 75 to 90 minutes. Cool pan on a wire rack, about 30 minutes. Invert onto a cutting board and slice.

I'm not a vegan, but I'm always looking for new and interesting vegetarian dishes to try. This falafel mushroom loaf definitely fits the bill! It's packed with flavor and has a great texture.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I made a few changes to suit my own taste. I added some chopped onion and garlic to the falafel mixture, and I used a mix of mushrooms, including shiitake and oyster mushrooms.

The flavor of this loaf was good, but the texture was a bit crumbly. I think I overcooked it a bit. Next time I'll try cooking it for less time.

This loaf was a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add more liquid next time, maybe some vegetable broth or tomato sauce.

This loaf is a great way to use up leftover falafel and mushrooms. It's also a good option for a meatless meal. I served it with a side of hummus and tahini sauce, and it was a delicious and satisfying meal.

I was skeptical about this recipe at first, but I'm so glad I tried it! The falafel and mushroom combination is delicious, and the loaf is moist and flavorful. I'll definitely be making this again.
