This zesty mushroom larb is a brilliant dairy-free alternative to the classic Laotian and Thai meat salad, offering deep umami flavours and a satisfying texture. By frying shiitake mushrooms until golden and crisp, you create a hearty base that absorbs the punchy aromatics of ginger, garlic, and fresh chillies. The addition of torn mint and sliced shallots brings a bright, herbaceous lift that balances the savoury richness of the mushrooms and salty fish sauce.
Perfect as a light lunch or a vibrant starter, this spicy vegetarian-style dish replaces traditional toasted rice with crunchy roasted peanuts for an extra layer of texture. Serving the warm mushroom mixture inside fresh, crisp cabbage leaves makes for a fun and healthy way to eat, offering a refreshing crunch in every bite. It is a fantastic option for anyone looking for a quick, flavour-packed meal that is naturally free from dairy.

Ingredients for Spicy Mushroom Larb
90ml vegetable oil, divided
675g shiitake mushrooms, stems removed, caps quartered
6 spring onions, thinly sliced
4 garlic cloves, finely grated
1 (2-inch) piece ginger, peeled, finely grated
Kosher salt
2 medium shallots, thinly sliced, rinsed
2 red chillies (such as Holland, Fresno, or Thai), thinly sliced
475ml mint leaves, torn if large
2 tablespoons fish sauce
120ml coarsely chopped unsalted dry-roasted peanuts, divided
1/2 head of green cabbage, halved crosswise, leaves separated
How to make Spicy Mushroom Larb
Heat 80ml oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Add mushrooms and cook, tossing often and reducing heat as needed to avoid scorching, until golden brown all over, about 15 minutes.
Add spring onions, garlic, and ginger to skillet, followed by remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Cook, stirring often, until aromatics are softened and fragrant, about 4 minutes.
Remove skillet from heat; season mushroom mixture lightly with salt. Mix in shallots, chillies, mint, fish sauce, and half of peanuts. Taste and season larb with more salt if needed.
Transfer larb to a platter or large bowl. Serve with cabbage and remaining peanuts alongside.
