Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare your ingredients: 1 bowl of rice, 2 fresh shiitake mushrooms, 80g of oyster mushrooms, 1/4 onion, and a small amount of green onion for garnish. Also, have 1 tablespoon of cornstarch ready.
Step 2
Thinly slice the onion. Finely chop the green onion. Slice the shiitake mushrooms thinly, following their natural shape. If the oyster mushrooms are large, tear them in half.
Step 3
Prepare the cornstarch slurry for thickening the sauce. In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of water. Stir well until there are no lumps. Set aside.
Step 4
Heat a pan with a little cooking oil over medium heat. Add the prepared shiitake mushrooms, oyster mushrooms, and sliced onion. Sauté for about 2 minutes until the mushrooms soften and the vegetables become tender, releasing their aroma.
Step 5
Once the mushrooms and vegetables are partially cooked, add 0.5 tablespoon of minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce. Stir-fry for another minute to allow the flavors to meld into the ingredients. You should smell the fragrant garlic.
Step 6
Pour in 100ml of water and bring the mixture to a boil over high heat. Once the sauce starts bubbling vigorously, proceed to the next step.
Step 7
While the sauce is boiling, stir the prepared cornstarch slurry to ensure it’s mixed well, then gradually pour it into the pan. Stir continuously with a spatula until the sauce reaches your desired consistency. It should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon but still pourable, creating a luscious topping for the rice.
Step 8
Once the sauce has thickened to your liking, turn off the heat. Sprinkle a pinch of black pepper and gently mix it in. Your delicious Shiitake Mushroom Rice Bowl is ready! Serve a bowl of warm rice, generously top it with the mushroom mixture, and garnish with the chopped green onions. Enjoy your aromatic and hearty meal!
