Crafting the Ultimate Vegan Filet Plate

Fluffy Spiced Jasmine Rice

Fragrant jasmine rice is infused with the warmth of cardamom, fennel, and coriander, then finished with creamy coconut oil for a luxurious texture.

Pro Tip: Rinse the rice thoroughly to remove excess starch and achieve perfectly fluffy grains.

Sautéed Oyster Mushrooms and Radicchio

Oyster mushrooms provide a meaty texture, while Treviso radicchio adds a subtle bitterness. A splash of tamari and thyme brings everything together in a savory sauté.

Upgrade It: Add a sprinkle of nutritional yeast for an extra umami kick.

Smoky Roasted Eggplant

Thin strips of eggplant are roasted with smoked paprika or garam masala until tender and caramelized.

Customization Tip: Swap eggplant for zucchini or sweet potatoes if preferred.

Vibrant Beet Salad

Crisp matchstick beets, tangy vinegar, and a touch of fresh horseradish combine for a refreshing salad that cuts through the richness of the other components.

Plating Tip: Use pomegranate seeds as a garnish for a burst of color and sweetness.

Sweet and Tangy Apricot Sauce

A blend of apricot jam, sesame oil, and tamari creates a silky sauce that enhances the Juicy Marbles filet and ties the dish together.

Cooking Tip: Adjust the consistency with water until it reaches a pourable, glaze-like texture.

The Juicy Marbles Filet

Pan-seared to golden perfection, the Juicy Marbles filet is lightly seasoned with salt and cooked until its exterior is crisp and its interior remains tender.

Pro Tip: Use the same pan from the mushrooms to build extra flavor into the filet.

Assembling the Plate

To create a stunning presentation, start with a base of spiced jasmine rice, then arrange the roasted eggplant, sautéed mushrooms, radicchio, and beet salad artfully around the plate. Add the Juicy Marbles filet as the centerpiece and drizzle generously with apricot sauce.

Plating Tip: Use an elegant ceramic plate to highlight the vibrant colors of the dish.

Pairing Suggestion: Serve with a glass of chilled white wine or sparkling water infused with citrus and mint.
