Super Simple Cabbage and Mushroom Fried Rice: A Quick & Delicious Meal
Whip up a delightful fried rice using fresh cabbage, earthy mushrooms, and savory oyster sauce. This recipe is incredibly easy and results in a flavorful dish perfect for any meal.
Main Ingredients- 3 leaves of cabbage (approx. 200g)
- 100g mushrooms (shiitake or king oyster, about 1 cup)
- 1 stalk of green onion (white part, approx. 50g)
- 3 Tbsp cooking oil
Flavor Enhancers- 2 Tbsp oyster sauce
- 2 Tbsp oyster sauce
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, wash the 3 cabbage leaves thoroughly, remove the core, and thinly slice them into strips about 0.5cm thick. Prepare the mushrooms by removing the stems and slicing them to your preferred size, either diced or thinly sliced. Finely chop the white parts of the green onion.
Step 2
Heat 3 tablespoons of cooking oil in a wide pan or wok over medium-low heat. Add the chopped green onions and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn them. Once the aroma of the green onion oil is released, your pan is ready for stir-frying!
Step 3
Now, add the sliced cabbage to the pan and stir-fry quickly over high heat for 1-2 minutes. Stir-frying until the cabbage becomes slightly translucent and starts to wilt will help maintain its crisp texture.
Step 4
While the cabbage is cooking, add the prepared mushrooms to the pan. Continue to stir-fry over high heat for another 1-2 minutes until the mushrooms release their moisture and their flavor intensifies. Mix well to combine the cabbage and mushrooms.
Step 5
Drizzle 2 tablespoons of oyster sauce over the stir-fried vegetables – this is the key to the flavor! Gently mix with a spatula for about 30 seconds, coating the vegetables in the savory sauce. Adjust the heat to prevent burning.
Step 6
Finally, add one bowl of warm cooked rice (or about 1.5 bowls) to the pan. Stir-fry vigorously for 1 minute, ensuring the oyster sauce and vegetables are evenly distributed throughout the rice. Your delicious cabbage and mushroom fried rice is ready! You can add a pinch of pepper to taste if you like.
