Vegan Mushroom Stroganoff
Stroganoff is a creamy dish of Russian descent. The traditional dish tends to have beef and soured cream… this is our version.The mixture of exotic mushrooms and chestnut mushrooms and spinach gives the dish a meaty texture but without the meat and the mustard gives the dish a tangy stroganoff flavour.
