Mushroom Popcorn

Serves 4

 

Ingredients

1 cup plain popcorn, popped

½ cup panko

½ cup biltong dust

1 tsp chilli flakes

1 tbsp sesame seeds

½ lemon, zested

olive oil for frying

300g baby button mushrooms

2 tbsp soy sauce

2 tbsp hoisin sauce

 

Method

1 Blitz the popcorn in a food processor until you’ve made chunky crumbs.

2 Mix the panko, popcorn crumbs, biltong dust, chilli flakes, sesame seeds and lemon zest in a large mixing bowl and set aside.

3 In a non-stick frying pan add a drizzle of olive oil and sauté the mushrooms until they release their water and begin to brown. Add the soy sauce and hoisin and roll the mushrooms around to glaze each one. Allow the sauce to reduce and become sticky.

4 Toss the glazed mushrooms in the popcorn mix, making sure each one is well coated. Serve as a snack in jars or cones at a party or while watching your favourite TV show.
