1 In a large pot, pour 2 tablespoons of olive oil, heat, then add your mushrooms and onions, salt, and stir in your turmeric and thyme, then braise covered on low heat very gently for about ten minutes.
2 Now add your tomato paste, stir for 2 minutes, then pour in the white wine, lemon juice (or combava), and the coriander seeds.
3 Let it cook covered gently for 20 minutes, taste and adjust seasoning, then turn off the heat and let it cool completely.
4 Transfer to a nice bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 24 hours.
5 When you want to serve this delicious appetizer, take it out of the fridge 30 minutes before.
Don't skip the 24 hours in the cold: that's when the mushrooms absorb the spiced cooking liquid. Under 12 hours, they stay on the surface. After 24 hours, the turmeric really penetrates and the coriander settles in nicely. Take them out 30 minutes before serving, never straight from the fridge: the cold masks the spices.
