Ingredients: (Serves 2)
For the dressing:
1/2 cup tahini
1-2 dropperfuls of @brightvalleymushrooms Lion's Mane extract
1 tbsp tamari
1 heaped tbsp shiro (white) miso paste
1⁄4 cup maple syrup
Boiling water as needed
For the dish:
1 cup of red rice
A selection of your preferred vegetables, I’ve used capsicum, red cabbage, carrot,
cucumber, tomato, steamed broccoli, baby spinach & radish - but you can use
whichever vegetables you feel called to.
A handful of pepitas & sesame seeds to sprinkle on top.
Method:
Add rice to a rice cooker, and prepare vegetables as needed.
Add @brightvalleymushrooms Lion's Mane extract, tahini, tamari, miso paste &
maple syrup to a clean glass jar. Add hot water as needed to help soften the miso paste & tahini - add more water for a thinner consistency. Replace the lid on the jar, and shake vigorously to blend.
Place rice in the centre of each bowl, and arrange vegetables around. Generously drizzle miso + tahini dressing over each bowl. Sprinkle with seeds to finish.
Serve & enjoy!
