This vegan twist on traditional galbi swaps meaty mixed mushrooms in place of the meat. The garlicky soy-and-sesame-oil sauce deepens the flavor of earthy mushrooms, which get roasted alongside scallions and green bell pepper until tender and golden. A final broil imparts a nice char and smoky flavor that mimics the grill. Leftovers turn into a fantastic fried rice the next day, topped with a fried egg.

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Heat oven to 450 degrees with racks in upper and lower third of oven. On a large rimmed sheet pan, combine scallions, bell pepper and 1 tablespoon of the neutral oil; season with salt and pepper. Toss the mixture to evenly coat, then spread in an even layer.

  2. Step 2

    On a second large rimmed sheet pan, combine mushrooms with 2 tablespoons of the neutral oil; season with salt and pepper. Toss to evenly coat, then spread in an even layer.

  3. Step 3

    Add both sheet pans to the oven and roast until vegetables are tender and mushrooms are golden, rotating pans halfway through cooking, 20 minutes. Combine all of the mushrooms and vegetables on one sheet pan.

  4. Step 4

    Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons neutral oil with the garlic and ginger over medium-low. Heat until the mixture starts to sizzle, then cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add soy sauce, sugar and ½ teaspoon of black pepper and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, 3 minutes. Stir in sesame oil.

  5. Step 5

    Heat broiler on high with rack 6 inches from the heat. Drizzle half of the sauce (about ¼ cup) all over the mushroom mixture and toss to evenly coat. Broil until lightly charred in spots, 3 to 5 minutes. Divide mushroom mixture among plates. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, if using.

  6. Step 6

    Serve with rice, kimchi (if using) and the remaining sauce.

The times for the mushrooms and veg in the oven were way too long; after broiling I had a heap of charred stuff. Would recommend 375 or so for about 11-13 mins and only 1-2 minutes broiling to set the marinade afterwards.

Delicious! But not very attractive on the plate. Suggest adding a few strips of roasted red pepper for a more pleasing presentation & next time I will slightly reduce the garlic.

I am always looking for new mushroom recipes since my husband loves them. Unprompted, he said “this is delicious.” Different from the usual (though good) ragouts. Yes, serve with kimchi, which can add the missing color someone commented on). Along with a sprinkle of cilantro. This was super easy to put together.

Definitely agree with other comments saying the mushrooms and peppers only need ab

This was fantastic, we’ll definitely make it again. Had some eggplant already cut into strips, salted and drained leftover a previous recipe— replaced the peppers with those. It turned out to be a very good way to cook eggplant. Cook times were accurate in my temperamental oven.

Use only 1 tablespoon of neutral oil. Add sesame oil at the end. Use half of a tablespoon.
