Ingredients- 1 Shiitake mushroom
- A small amount of squid meat (approx. 50g)
- 1 handful of spinach (approx. 30g)
- 1 Tbsp minced garlic
- 1 bowl of cooked rice (approx. 200g)
- 150ml Cooking cream
- 1 Tbsp Oyster sauce
- A pinch of red chili flakes (optional)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Lightly grease a pan with oil and heat over medium heat. Sauté the minced garlic and red chili flakes (optional) until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic; the key is to release a gentle aroma.
Step 2
Add the cleaned shiitake mushrooms and squid meat to the pan and stir-fry. Cook sufficiently to blend the fragrant flavor of shiitake mushrooms with the chewy texture of squid, enhancing the overall taste.
Step 3
Once the ingredients are nicely browned, add 1 Tbsp of oyster sauce and reduce the heat to low. Stir gently to ensure the deep umami flavor of the oyster sauce coats the ingredients evenly for a richer taste.
Step 4
Keeping the heat on low, add 150ml of cooking cream and 1 bowl of cooked rice. Mix well, stirring continuously to prevent sticking. Continue stirring as it simmers until the rice is coated with the creamy sauce.
Step 5
When the risotto reaches your desired creamy consistency, add the washed spinach and cook just until it wilts. This preserves its crisp texture and vibrant color. Your delightful Shiitake Mushroom Cream & Oyster Sauce Risotto is now ready to be enjoyed!
