Main Ingredients- 3 King Oyster Mushrooms
- A little chopped scallion (for garnish)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Gently clean the king oyster mushrooms. Use a damp paper towel to wipe off any dirt or debris. Avoid washing them directly with water, as they can absorb too much moisture and become soggy.
Step 2
Once cleaned, slice the king oyster mushrooms into manageable pieces. Cutting them into 3 or 4 sections lengthwise is usually convenient for cooking and eating.
Step 3
To enhance their delightfully chewy texture, score the mushrooms. Make shallow, crisscross cuts on one side of each mushroom piece. This helps the sauce penetrate better and makes them look more appealing when cooked.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 20g of butter. Using olive oil with butter helps prevent the butter from burning.
Step 5
Once the butter is melted and fragrant, place the prepared king oyster mushrooms into the skillet. Sear them until they are golden brown on one side. This initial searing helps to release moisture and develop their chewy texture.
Step 6
When one side is nicely browned, flip the mushrooms over to cook the other side. Be mindful of the heat to prevent burning. If needed, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 10g of butter. Continue to cook until both sides are beautifully golden brown.
Step 7
Once the mushrooms are well-seared, pour in the pre-mixed sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon of minced garlic, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of oligodang, 1/2 tablespoon of oyster sauce, and 2 tablespoons of white wine (or mirin). Sprinkle in a pinch of black pepper, dried rosemary, and parsley flakes for added aroma. Gently toss the mushrooms in the sauce, coating them evenly. Let it simmer for about 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the mushrooms. Be careful not to overcook, as it might become too salty.
Step 8
Transfer the glazed king oyster mushrooms to a serving plate. Garnish with a sprinkle of chopped scallions. Your delicious and elegant King Oyster Mushroom Butter Garlic Stir-fry is ready to be enjoyed! It’s best served warm.
