Main Ingredients- 1 pack oyster mushrooms
- 1/2 stalk scallion
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Trim off the clustered base of the oyster mushrooms with a knife. If the mushrooms are too large, tear them into bite-sized pieces by hand. This preparation will make them more tender and enjoyable when cooked.
Step 2
Lightly rinse the prepared oyster mushrooms under running water. It’s crucial to squeeze out as much water as possible after rinsing. Removing excess water prevents the dish from becoming watery during cooking, ensuring a delicious outcome.
Step 3
Finely mince the scallions. Heat a generous amount of cooking oil in a pan over medium-low heat. Add the minced scallions and stir-fry until fragrant. Sautéing the scallions like this will enhance the mushroom’s flavor.
Step 4
Once the scallions are lightly golden, add half a tablespoon of minced garlic and stir-fry together. As soon as the garlic becomes fragrant, prepare to add the next ingredient. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
Step 5
Now, add the squeezed oyster mushrooms to the pan. The key is to stir-fry them quickly over high heat to maintain their chewy texture.
Step 6
For seasoning the oyster mushroom stir-fry, we’ll use salt for a simple taste. Add salt little by little and sprinkle it evenly over the mushrooms, adjusting the amount to your preference. Once the mushrooms are fully cooked, turn off the heat and drizzle in the sesame oil. Finally, sprinkle with sesame seeds for a beautiful finish. Your delicious oyster mushroom side dish is ready!
Step 7
This oyster mushroom stir-fry, with its wonderful chewy texture and nutty sesame oil aroma, makes an excellent side dish. Enjoy it with a warm bowl of rice!
