Product description

A visually striking, whole-food vegan-friendly alternative to beef steak, Lion’s Mane mushroom steaks deliver a naturally meaty texture and rich umami flavour. The mushroom’s delicate, fluffy spines allow it to caramelise and char beautifully when seared or grilled, creating crisp, golden edges and a tender centre.

Our signature Prepared Mane marinade is crafted to enhance both flavour and appearance, giving the steak a rare-style look - darker red through the centre with deeper browning towards the edges. The result is a plant-based steak that looks impressive on the plate and satisfying with every bite.

Perfect for pan-searing, grilling, or serving as the centrepiece of a refined vegan or vegetarian dish.

EACH PACK COMES WITH FOUR STEAKS*

*Each steak weighs approximately 150 g. Please note that, as a natural product, individual steak weights may vary slightly. The total weight of the pack is designed to be around 600 g.
