Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s check and gather all the ingredients needed for this recipe. It’s wonderfully simple, making it easy for anyone to follow along!
Step 2
Prepare your fresh king oyster mushrooms. Trim off and discard the tough, woody base of the mushrooms. Give them a gentle rinse under cool running water and pat them dry.
Step 3
Line your air fryer basket with parchment paper. Place the whole, prepared king oyster mushrooms directly onto the parchment. Cooking them whole helps to retain their moisture and maximize their natural flavor.
Step 4
Set your air fryer to 180°C (350°F) and cook for 12 minutes. To ensure even cooking, take out the mushrooms halfway through and turn them over. They should become slightly golden brown on the outside while staying tender and juicy inside.
Step 5
While the mushrooms are cooking, let’s quickly make a simple dipping sauce. In a small bowl, add 1 teaspoon of salt.
Step 6
Add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil to the salt, and your delicious dipping sauce is ready! For an extra touch, you can add a pinch of black pepper if you like.
Step 7
Once cooked, carefully remove the golden-brown king oyster mushrooms from the air fryer. Let them cool slightly, then slice them into bite-sized, round pieces. These are perfect for popping into your mouth!
Step 8
Observe the cut surface of the mushrooms – you’ll see they are moist and packed with savory juices. Dip these delightful mushroom pieces into the prepared sesame oil and salt mixture for a burst of chewy texture and rich mushroom flavor. They make a fantastic side dish or a savory snack!
