Main Ingredients- 3 King Oyster Mushrooms
- 1 Tbsp minced Cheongyang chili pepper
- 1 Tbsp minced Red bell pepper
- 3 Tbsp minced Scallion (green onion)
- 1 Tbsp Cultured butter
- 1 Tbsp Olive oil
Seasoning Ingredients- 2 Tbsp Low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 Tbsp Minced garlic
- 1 Tbsp Toasted sesame seeds or sesame powder
- 2 Tbsp Low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 Tbsp Minced garlic
- 1 Tbsp Toasted sesame seeds or sesame powder
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, thoroughly wash the fresh King Oyster Mushrooms and pat them dry. Then, slice them lengthwise into bite-sized pieces. This slicing method enhances their chewy texture and allows them to absorb the flavors well.
Step 2
Next, finely mince or chop the red bell pepper for color, the Cheongyang chili pepper for a touch of heat, and the scallion for a fresh aroma. The combination of colors, flavors, and aromas will significantly elevate the taste of your stir-fry.
Step 3
Heat a pan over medium-low heat. Add the cultured butter and olive oil together, and let the butter melt completely. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, taking care not to burn the garlic. Adjust the heat as needed.
Step 4
Once the fragrant garlic aroma fills the air, add the sliced King Oyster Mushrooms to the pan. Pour in 2 tablespoons of the low-sodium soy sauce and stir everything together gently to ensure an even coating. Using low-sodium soy sauce helps reduce sodium intake while adding a savory depth.
Step 5
After adding the mushrooms, refrain from high heat and cook over medium heat, allowing the undersides of the mushrooms to brown slightly without stirring too much. This step deepens their natural flavor and develops a pleasant chewiness.
Step 6
Once the mushroom undersides are lightly browned, add all the chopped red bell pepper, Cheongyang chili pepper, and scallion. Stir-fry them together with the mushrooms quickly. The crisp texture of the vegetables and their fresh aroma will make the dish even more appealing.
Step 7
Continue to stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes, allowing all the ingredients to meld together and the sauce to be absorbed evenly by the King Oyster Mushrooms. Finally, sprinkle in 1 tablespoon of toasted sesame seeds or sesame powder and give it a light toss. Your delicious King Oyster Mushroom stir-fry is now ready.
Step 8
Transfer the flavorful low-sodium King Oyster Mushroom butter stir-fry to a serving dish. It’s a wonderful side dish that pairs perfectly with a warm bowl of rice, offering both health benefits and great taste!
