Ingredients

1 medium onion, peeled and chopped

500 g mushrooms, washed and thinly sliced
2 tbsp lemon juice

In a non-stick skillet pan, sauté the onion and garlic in a little water, until soft.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the pan and continue cooking until the mushrooms soften and release their moisture.
Next, add the lemon juice, tarragon and paprika to the pan and gently stir, making sure all the vegetables are coated.
Meanwhile, in a small jug, mix together the stock and tahini then pour over the mushroom mixture and mix well.
Simmer until the sauce begins to thicken to your desired consistency.
Remove from the heat and serve immediately.
