To make mushrooms with tomato paste, brown sliced mushrooms in a hot pan, let their released liquid evaporate, then stir in a little oil and tomato paste. Add a splash of water and simmer until the sauce coats the mushrooms.
White button mushrooms are a convenient choice for mushrooms with tomato paste because they cook evenly and are widely available. Cremini mushrooms also work well and have a deeper flavor; cut larger mushrooms into similar-sized pieces so they cook at the same rate.
Use a wide, hot pan and avoid crowding it when cooking mushrooms with tomato paste. Pat the mushrooms dry after washing, and cook them until their liquid evaporates before adding the paste; crowded mushrooms steam instead of browning.
Yes, canned mushrooms can be used for mushrooms with tomato paste. Drain them well and pat them dry first, since they will not brown like fresh mushrooms and can make the sauce watery. Add them after frying the tomato paste and heat through.
Oregano, thyme, black pepper, and paprika pair well with mushrooms with tomato paste. Add dried herbs while the sauce simmers so they can flavor it; finish with fresh parsley if you want a brighter taste.
Mushrooms with tomato paste go well with rice, pasta, crusty bread, or roasted vegetables. For a fuller meal, serve them alongside beans or lentils; their savory tomato sauce is also easy to spoon over a grain or bread.
Yes, mushrooms with tomato paste can be cooked ahead and reheated when needed. For the best texture, cook the mushrooms until their liquid has evaporated before making the sauce, then reheat gently on the stove with a splash of water.
Yes, you can freeze mushrooms with tomato paste in an airtight freezer-safe container. The mushrooms may become softer after thawing, so frozen portions work best stirred into pasta, grains, or another cooked dish rather than served for their original texture.
Yes, fresh tomatoes can be added to mushrooms with tomato paste for a fresher, lighter sauce. Chop them and cook until their extra liquid reduces, then adjust the paste to taste so the finished dish still has a rich tomato flavor.

Mushrooms with tomato paste is a simple home-style dish made by cooking mushrooms with tomato paste, a familiar flavour in Turkish cooking. The paste gives the mushrooms a savoury, concentrated tomato taste, while the cooked mushrooms stay tender with a gently chewy texture. Recipes vary from one household to another.
Serve it as a side with rice or bread, alongside grilled food, or as part of a meat-free meal. It is low in calories and provides fibre and antioxidants; a 100 g portion has 38 calories. Use just enough oil to coat the pan for a lighter result, and finish with fresh herbs if you like.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
