Hangug Beoseos Begoeo: Korean Style Mushroom Burger

Black buns, and Korean fried Chicken ... both have made a mark in the food scene with the rise of Kpop culture since the last few years. To have a fresh take on this, we’ve made a plant-based version of the #dakgangjeong by stuffing portobello mushrooms with cheese, deep-fried and doused with the quintessential spicy sweet soy glaze. We made our own charcoal bun and layered it with burnt leek mayo, the crispy glazed shroom & apple radish slaw.

    • Drizzle leeks with the oils and season with salt and pepper.
    • Grill the leeks over the charcoal flame until they start to char.
    • After grilling, slice the leeks finely and transfer them to a food processor. It is best to slice the leeks before blending for the machine to easily cut through the fibers.

    • Store in the chiller until ready to use.

    • Sauce can be slightly warmed over low heat for easier handling.

  3. Stuffed Portobellos:

    • Preheat the oven to 175°C.
    • Carefully remove stems and gills from the mushrooms. Finely chop the stems and include it with the other mushrooms for the stuffing.
    • Lightly score the top of the mushrooms.
    • Place them on a baking tray or food pan. Drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for about 20-25 minutes.
    • When the mushrooms are done, transfer to a tray lined with parchment. Let it cool before stuffing.  

  4. Stuffing:

    • Heat oil in a sauté pan.
