8 fl oz of white vinegar
4 baby plum tomatoes

2 tbsp of olive oil
Preparation
Pickled Onions
Pour the vinegar into a clean glass jar and add the onions and beets. Seal, then leave in a cool place to pickle for a minimum of 10 days.
Mushrooms
Wash all of the mushrooms and leave to drain thoroughly. Blanch the Portobello and shiitake mushrooms in boiling water, then drain and let cool.
Make each of the three different mushroom marinades separately by combining the all the ingredients, except the mushrooms, into a blender and blending till smooth. Pour each of the marinades into three (3) separate bowls and add the coordinating mushroom into its marinade and let set to marinate for 30 minutes.
Thread the mushrooms onto skewers and grill for 2 minutes or until gently browned. Alternatively, place the mushrooms on a wire rack with a tray beneath and grill for 2-3 minutes or until lightly browned
Plating/Presentation
Place a few baby spinach leaves into a shallow salad bowl or plate. Add 2 to 3 of each grilled mushroom and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with slices of pickled onions and beets, quarters of baby plum tomatoes and sprigs of fresh coriander/cilantro.
Serve warm.
