Whole Roasted Maitake Steaks with Japanese Sweets-and-Leeks Mash image

How's this for a magnificent, meat-free entrée? The maitake mushroom is serendipitously steak-size, and looks regal atop the Japanese sweet-potato-and-leek mash. Drizzled with soy sauce and lime and roasted at high heat, the maitake's texture concentrates to near-porterhouse perfection.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 teaspoon grated lime zest, plus 2 tablespoons fresh juice
1/4 cup vegetable oil, plus more for drizzling
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 clusters (each 3.5 ounces) maitake mushrooms (aka hen-of-the-woods)
1 recipe Japanese Sweets-and-Leeks Mash
Rice seasoning (furikake), for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce and lime zest and juice. Slowly whisk in oil; season with salt and pepper.
  • Lightly drizzle oil onto a rimmed baking sheet. Trim bottom ends of mushroom clusters so they stand upright; transfer to sheet in a single layer, trimmed-sides down, at least 2 inches apart. Drizzle evenly with half of soy mixture; season with salt and pepper.
  • Roast until darkened slightly and tender but still holding their shape, 22 to 25 minutes. Serve mushrooms over mash, drizzled with remaining soy-lime dressing and sprinkled with rice seasoning.

The leek mash was the perfect accompaniment to the maitake steaks. It was creamy and flavorful, and it helped to balance out the richness of the mushrooms.
