Essential Ingredients- 1 packet Enoki mushrooms (trim the base and rinse lightly)
- 1 Tbsp minced garlic
- 3 Tbsp cooking oil

- 0.5 Tbsp oyster sauce (for extra umami!)
- 1 Tbsp oligo syrup (for shine and sweetness)
- 3 Tbsp water
- 0.3 tsp black pepper (adjust to taste)
- 2 Tbsp soy sauce
- 0.5 Tbsp oyster sauce (for extra umami!)
- 1 Tbsp oligo syrup (for shine and sweetness)
- 3 Tbsp water
- 0.3 tsp black pepper (adjust to taste)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the enoki mushrooms. Trim off the base of the enoki mushrooms and rinse them lightly under running water, then pat them dry. This helps remove any dirt and the tough bottom part.
Step 2
Let’s make the key to delicious enoki mushroom soy glaze: the sauce! In a bowl, combine 2 Tbsp soy sauce, 0.5 Tbsp oyster sauce, 1 Tbsp oligo syrup, 3 Tbsp water, and 0.3 tsp black pepper. Stir well until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed. Oyster sauce adds a deeper, savory flavor.
Step 3
Now, it’s time to stir-fry. Heat 3 Tbsp of cooking oil in a lightly heated frying pan. Swirl the pan to coat the bottom evenly with oil; this ensures even cooking.
Step 4
Once the pan is sufficiently hot, add 1 Tbsp of minced garlic. Stir-fry over medium heat for about 30 seconds, being careful not to burn it, until fragrant. When you start to smell the rich aroma of garlic, it’s ready for the next step.
Step 5
Add all the prepared enoki mushrooms to the frying pan. Don’t worry if it looks like a lot; enoki mushrooms shrink considerably when cooked.
Step 6
Immediately after adding the enoki mushrooms, pour in the prepared sauce. Make sure the sauce coats the mushrooms evenly.
Step 7
Adjust the heat to medium-high and cook until the sauce thickens and reduces, coating the mushrooms. It’s best to cook for about 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender yet still chewy, and the sauce is sticky. This prevents the sauce from burning.
Step 8
Transfer the beautifully glazed enoki mushrooms to a serving dish. Your delicious side dish, perfect with rice, is ready! Enjoy it with your favorite meal.
