Creamy Air-Fried Mushrooms (10 Minutes!)

Don’t say I didn’t warn you about how addicting these creamy air-fried mushrooms are!

It takes less than 10 minutes to prepare this delicious, savory, creamy air-fried mushrooms that will change your life!

Every bite of mushroom is packed with so many umami flavors, plus you can prepare it all in an air-fryer, so you don’t even need to turn on the stove.

Give this delicious vegetarian snack a try, and I promise you will fall in love. 

I am not kidding when I say I made these creamy air-fried mushrooms three days in a row because they were THAT delicious!

When I visited New York in February, I went to a restaurant called NONONO.

A dish that blew my mind was their Daichi Mushroom, which is deep-fried grilled mushrooms with scallop basil sauce.

Every bite was packed with umami flavor and the perfect bite-size appetizer and snack. I was determined to recreate a vegetarian alternative that is easy to make at home. 

These Creamy Air-fried Mushrooms take less than 10 minutes to prepare, and it only requires a few simple ingredients.

All you need is shiitake mushroom, Japanese Mayo, Lemon, Soy Sauce, and a little bit of red chili powder if you like it spicy.

I like the savory, and meaty flavor shiitake mushroom provides, but you can also use any mushroom. 

If you don’t have an air-fryer, you can also prepare these Creamy Mushrooms in the oven.

Pre-heat the oven to 400F and bake for 10 minutes.

I prefer to use an air fryer as it cooks much faster and provides the “deep-fried” and “grilled” flavor I fell in love with at NONONO restaurant.

We will soon be writing a blog post comparing the five air fryers I purchased, so stay tuned!

The air fryer I am using right now is the COSORI Air Fryer Oven Combo, and I cannot recommend it enough!
