Basic Ingredients (Serves 60)- 4kg Fresh Shiitake Mushrooms (with stems removed and washed clean)
- 2kg Thick-cut Bacon (cut into bite-sized pieces)
- 3 Scallions (cut into large pieces)
Seasonings for Flavor- 100g Minced Garlic (fresher minced garlic yields better flavor)
- 200g Oyster Sauce (the key to umami!)
- 100ml Sesame Oil (adds finishing aroma)
- 50g Sesame Seeds (for garnish)
- 100g Minced Garlic (fresher minced garlic yields better flavor)
- 200g Oyster Sauce (the key to umami!)
- 100ml Sesame Oil (adds finishing aroma)
- 50g Sesame Seeds (for garnish)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, remove the stems from the fresh shiitake mushrooms, wash them thoroughly, and then slice them into thick, large pieces about 0.5cm thick. It’s important to preserve the unique aroma and chewy texture of shiitake mushrooms. Cut the bacon into bite-sized pieces, about 1-1.5cm wide. Cutting them too thin might cause them to crumble when stir-fried, so choose an appropriate thickness.
Step 2
Take the large-cut scallions and stir-fry them gently in a pan with a little oil over medium-low heat. The sweet aroma of the scallions will infuse into the oil, further enhancing the dish’s flavor. Be careful not to burn them, and make sure to develop a good amount of ‘scallion oil’.
Step 3
Once the scallions start releasing their delicious aroma, add the prepared bacon and stir-fry over medium heat until golden brown. The fat rendered from the bacon will coat the shiitake mushrooms and add a delicious flavor. When the bacon is partially cooked, add the sliced shiitake mushrooms and stir-fry them together. It’s best to stir-fry until the shiitake mushrooms soften and turn a nice golden color.
Step 4
Once the ingredients are well stir-fried, it’s time to season. Add 100g of minced garlic, 200g of savory oyster sauce, and 100ml of fragrant sesame oil. Stir well while stir-frying to ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed among all ingredients. Avoid stir-frying over high heat for too long as it can burn; the key is to stir-fry just until the ingredients are well combined with the sauce.
Step 5
Finally, generously sprinkle 50g of sesame seeds for added nuttiness. The nutty flavor and texture of the sesame seeds will make the dish even richer. This delicious Shiitake Mushroom and Bacon Stir-fry is perfect served over warm rice or enjoyed as a simple side dish. Enjoy your meal!
