Mushroom and Egg Fried Rice Ingredients- 1 medium onion
- Generous amount of green onions (about 1/2 bunch)
- 1/2 pack of mushrooms (your choice)
- Olive oil, as needed
- 3 Tbsp soy sauce
- 2 Tbsp maple syrup (or 1.5 Tbsp sugar)
- 3 large eggs
- 3 bowls of cooked rice (warm)
- 1 Tbsp oyster sauce
- 2 Tbsp sesame oil
- Sriracha sauce, generously (to taste)
- A pinch of black sesame seeds (for garnish)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the vegetables that will add flavor to your fried rice. Peel and thinly slice 1 medium onion. Wash and finely chop the green onions. Trim the ends of the mushrooms and either tear them into bite-sized pieces or slice them. (Any type of mushroom like shiitake or king oyster mushrooms will work great!)
Step 2
Heat a generous amount of olive oil in a deep frying pan or wok over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and sauté until they become translucent, bringing out their natural sweetness. The onions will develop a richer flavor as they start to turn slightly golden.
Step 3
Add the chopped green onions and sauté with the onions for another 1-2 minutes to enhance their fragrance. Once the green onions are slightly wilted, you’re ready for the next ingredients.
Step 4
Add the prepared mushrooms to the pan and stir-fry them with the vegetables. Sauté until the mushrooms release their moisture and become lightly browned. This will bring out their chewy texture and savory flavor.
Step 5
Once the vegetables are nicely sautéed, push them to one side of the pan. Pour 3 tablespoons of soy sauce into the empty space and let it simmer slightly. This step helps to deepen the umami flavor of the soy sauce.
Step 6
As the soy sauce reduces slightly, add 2 tablespoons of maple syrup to add sweetness and a nice sheen. If you’re using sugar instead, about 1.5 tablespoons should be sufficient.
Step 7
While the vegetable mixture is simmering, push all the ingredients to one side of the pan (or use a separate pan). Crack 3 eggs into the empty space and scramble them until softly cooked. Once the eggs are lightly set, gently mix them with the sautéed vegetables.
Step 8
Stir-fry everything together to ensure the scrambled eggs and sautéed vegetables are well combined. You should start to smell a delicious aroma as all the ingredients meld together.
Step 9
Add 3 bowls of warm cooked rice to the pan. Use a spatula to gently break up any clumps of rice and stir-fry until the rice grains are evenly coated with the sauce. Ensure each grain is seasoned.
Step 10
Add 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce to further enhance the flavor of the fried rice and adjust the seasoning. Oyster sauce adds a wonderful umami depth and balances the overall taste of the dish.
Step 11
Finally, drizzle in 2 tablespoons of sesame oil for a nutty aroma and to give the fried rice a glossy finish. Quickly mix to distribute the sesame oil evenly throughout the rice.
Step 12
Transfer the well-stirred mushroom and egg fried rice onto a plate. It should look appetizing, with individual grains of rice that are nicely seasoned and not mushy.
Step 13
For an extra kick of flavor, generously drizzle Sriracha sauce over the fried rice according to your preference. Finish with a sprinkle of black sesame seeds for both visual appeal and a nutty crunch. Your delicious Mushroom and Egg Fried Rice is now complete!
