Making mushroom patties from oyster mushrooms-delicious!

Came across a tree full of wonderful oyster mushrooms and took home some of them.  

I gave them a quick boil and boiled some red lentils (about one teacup) until they split. 

Added some all-purpose flour and a bit of stale bread.  Seasoned with salt,  pepper,  wild garlic,  lovage,  cumin,  turmeric,  finely diced onions and paprica.  Made a stiff dough. 

Fried them in sunflower oil until golden brown. 

 I really like those! 

Delicious Chicken of the woods Steak with wild herb spinach

On a recent hike I came across a really nice specimen of chicken of the woods (laetiporous sulphurea, in German: Schwefelporling), grown on some fallen cherry.  

Took home a good piece of it (please do forage responsibly and only take 25% ) 

Cleaned it thoroughly. 

Boiled for ten minutes.  

Marinated in olive oil,  salt,  pepper,  cumin,  turmeric,  onions,  wild garlic,  ground ivy,  and ground elder, a bit of lemon juice and lovage over night.  

Chopped an onion and three handful of nettle,  wild garlic,  and ground elder.  Glazed the onion,  quenched with water,  miso and lovage, added the wild herbs and cooked for five minutes.  Added a spoon of peanut butter. 

Fried the mushroom steaks until crispy on the outside and soft inside.  

Absolutely delicious!
