Method
In a mixing bowl, combine the coriander root, garlic, white pepper, palm sugar, light soy sauce and vegetable oil into a smooth marinade paste.
Add the vegetarian oyster sauce and the extra light soy sauce, then toss the mushroom pieces through the marinade to coat.
Leave to marinate at room temperature for 15 minutes so the mushrooms take on the flavour.
Thread the mushroom pieces onto the soaked bamboo skewers, packing them snugly.
Heat a griddle pan over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Grill the skewers for 3 minutes per side, brushing with coconut milk each time you turn them, until the mushrooms are charred and tender.
Transfer the skewers to a plate and serve warm.
