Main Ingredients
- 1 King Oyster Mushroom (approx. 100g)
- 15g Unsalted Butter
- Pinch of Salt (to taste)
Optional (for extra flavor)
- A little Mozzarella Cheese (optional)
- A little Mozzarella Cheese (optional)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare one fresh King Oyster Mushroom. Wash it thoroughly under running water, then slice it into even, approximately 0.5cm thick rounds. Slicing the stem and cap to a similar thickness will ensure they cook evenly.
Step 2
Now, get your frying pan ready. Without adding any oil or water, place the pan over high heat and let it preheat thoroughly. A hot pan is key to preventing the butter from burning and infusing the mushrooms with a delicious flavor.
Step 3
Once the pan is sufficiently hot, add the 15g of unsalted butter. The butter will begin to melt slowly.
Step 4
Wait until the butter has completely melted. You’ll know it’s ready when it starts to bubble and release a rich, buttery aroma.
Step 5
With the butter fully melted, carefully add the sliced King Oyster Mushrooms to the pan. Be cautious as the butter may splatter.
Step 6
After adding the mushrooms, use chopsticks or tongs to gently toss them, ensuring each slice is evenly coated with the melted butter. This butter coating will make the mushrooms incredibly moist and flavorful.
Step 7
Now, reduce the heat to medium-low. It’s important to cook the mushrooms gently over low heat to allow them to cook through and become tender without burning. You’ll notice the mushrooms releasing their moisture and starting to caramelize.
Step 8
When both sides of the mushrooms have turned a beautiful golden-brown and developed a lovely sheen, your delicious butter-seared mushrooms are ready! Season with a pinch of salt at this stage to enhance the flavor.
Step 9
Arrange the cooked King Oyster Mushrooms neatly in the center of your serving plate. Layering them nicely will make the dish look even more appealing.
Step 10
If you’d like to add cheese, sprinkle a little mozzarella cheese over the mushrooms on the plate. Microwave for about 30 seconds, or until the cheese is melted and gooey. This adds an extra layer of creamy, savory flavor.
Step 11
Once the cheese-topped mushrooms are beautifully arranged, your visually appealing and delicious Pan-Seared King Oyster Mushrooms with Butter are complete! Enjoy them immediately while they are warm. 🍽️
