Let’s make some ultra flavorful Jamaican inspired curry mushrooms tacos for dinner! Or lunch. This recipe takes around 20 minutes to make and is absolutely bursting with flavor, and super meaty but fully plant based.
These tacos are AMAZING! And no, I’m not just trying to toot my own horn. I came up with this recipe when I posted my jerk tacos recipe to Tik Tok, and someone asked me to create a recipe with curry mushrooms.
Needless to say, it was a top tier recommendation because this recipe was incredible and packed with flavor.
An island and latin fusion recipe, these curry mushroom tacos are juicy, well seasoned and topped off with an easy pico de Gallo.

How to make Curry Tacos- Jamaican Style Curry Mushroom Tacos
Step One:
Chop your garlic, scallion, and onion very small. Leave the thyme as is.
Step Two:
Shred your mushroom with a fork until it resembles pulled chicken.
Put oil in a pan on medium heat put the curry powder into the oil, immediately stirring. This is a Jamaican cooking method called” burning” your curry but you will not actually burn it, its just tempering.
Step Three:
Once the curry powder has been stirred into the oil for about 30 seconds, add in the mushrooms. Stir to combine well and over the pot, allowing the shrooms to cook for the next 5-7 minutes.
Step Four:
Once the mushrooms are cooked, add in the chopped herbs and allow those to sauté and cook. Add in the rest of the dry seasoning as well.
Step Five:
While the curry mushrooms are cooking, chop up your onion, tomato, and parsley required for the pico salsa topping. Mix in the lemon juice and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Step Six:
Once your curry mushroom has cooked fully, go ahead and toast your tortillas according to package instructions.
Top with the mushroom mixture and pico and enjoy!
