Main Ingredients
- King Oyster Mushrooms, 200g
- Cooking Oil, 1 Tbsp
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
If your king oyster mushrooms still have their base attached, you can trim it cleanly by cutting across the bottom of the packaging before opening it. This prevents the mushrooms from falling apart too much.
Step 2
Gently rinse the trimmed mushrooms under cool running water and shake off excess moisture, or lightly wipe them with a damp paper towel or cloth. Avoid washing them for too long, as they can become mushy.
Step 3
For a spicy kick, finely mince the chili pepper after removing the seeds and pith. Also, chop the scallions into small pieces for garnish. Aim for a similar size for a visually appealing finish.
Step 4
In a small bowl, combine 1 Tbsp of fire chicken sauce, 1/2 Tbsp of gochujang, 1/2 Tbsp of brown sugar, 1/2 Tbsp of soy sauce, 1 tsp of minced garlic, and 1 tsp of ketchup. Ketchup adds a nice tang and gloss.
Step 5
Whisk or stir the sauce ingredients until the sugar is completely dissolved and everything is well combined. A smooth, uniform sauce will ensure the best flavor.
Step 6
Now, let’s stir-fry! Heat 1 Tbsp of cooking oil in a pan over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, spread the prepared king oyster mushrooms evenly in the pan. Try not to overcrowd it.
Step 7
Once the mushrooms are tender and lightly browned, brush them generously with the prepared fire chicken sauce. Flip them over and coat both sides thoroughly, ensuring the sauce adheres well. Cook over medium-low heat to prevent burning.
Step 8
When the sauce has thickened slightly and coated the mushrooms with a delicious glaze, turn off the heat. Drizzle 1/2 Tbsp of sesame oil over the pan for a final fragrant touch. The aroma will enhance your appetite!
Step 9
Finally, plate your creation. Arrange the mushrooms lengthwise attractively and sprinkle the minced chili pepper and chopped scallions on top as a garnish. The colorful topping adds visual appeal and an extra burst of flavor. Enjoy your meal!
