How to Make Vegan Magiritsa
1️⃣ Sauté the mushrooms: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over high heat. Add the chopped mushrooms and sauté until they release their juices.
2️⃣ Add the vegetables: Stir in the spring onions, lettuce, carrot, and potato. Season with salt and pepper.
3️⃣ Simmer the soup: Pour in enough water to cover the vegetables. Cover the pot, reduce the heat, and let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes.
4️⃣ Prepare the creamy base: Remove the carrot and potato from the pot. Blend them with the Tahini and lemon Sap until smooth.
5️⃣ Combine & serve: Pour the blended mixture back into the pot, stir well, and let it cook for another 4-5 minutes. Sprinkle with fresh dill and serve warm!
