Main Ingredients- 1 bunch Oyster mushrooms (approx. 100g)
- 1 medium Onion
Seasoning Ingredients- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of pepper
- 1 tsp Plum extract (or syrup)
- 1 Tbsp Oyster sauce
- 1 tsp Sesame oil
- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of pepper
- 1 tsp Plum extract (or syrup)
- 1 Tbsp Oyster sauce
- 1 tsp Sesame oil
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Gently tear the oyster mushrooms into bite-sized pieces, removing any tough ends. Avoid tearing them too small, as this can diminish their texture. Prepare them for cooking.
Step 2
Peel and thinly slice the onion into strips (julienne). The thickness of the slices can be adjusted to your preference.
Step 3
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Once boiling, add the torn oyster mushrooms and a pinch of salt. Blanch them for just 30 seconds to 1 minute. Overcooking can make the mushrooms mushy and reduce their flavor.
Step 4
Immediately rinse the blanched mushrooms under cold water to cool them down. Gently squeeze out as much excess water as possible. Properly draining the mushrooms is crucial to prevent a watery stir-fry and ensure a better flavor.
Step 5
Heat 1-2 tablespoons of cooking oil in a pan over medium-low heat. Add the sliced onions and stir-fry until they become translucent and slightly sweet-smelling. Cook them thoroughly.
Step 6
Once the onions are translucent, add the drained oyster mushrooms to the pan. Stir-fry together. Season with a pinch of salt, a pinch of pepper, 1 tsp plum extract, and 1 Tbsp oyster sauce. Continue to stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes until well combined. Just before turning off the heat, drizzle in 1 tsp of sesame oil for a fragrant finish. Serve immediately while warm!
