Preparation steps
Cut off the stems of the mushrooms and place in a bowl. Peel the garlic, finely chop and mix with ginger, lemongrass, soy sauce and sesame oil. Toss the mushrooms in the marinade to coat. Let sit for 4 hours, stirring frequently.
For the sauce, rinse the chile pepper, cut in half, remove the seeds and chop very finely. Peel the garlic and also finely chop. Warm the garlic and chile slightly with the peanut butter, lime juice, soy sauce and sesame oil in a saucepan while stirring. Add the coconut milk and stir well to combine.
Remove the mushrooms from the marinade and place 4 mushrooms on each skewer. Place the skewers on the grill and cook until golden brown on all sides, occasionally brushing with marinade. Alternatively, heat some oil in a pan and fry the mushroom skewers in the same way. Serve the finished skewers with the sauce and garnish with chopped scallions and peanuts.
