Ingredients
- 400 grams Button mushrooms (or cremini mushrooms)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh ginger, minced
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 Red chilies, sliced thinly (adjust to taste)
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil (or any neutral cooking oil)
- 2 stalks Green onions (optional, for garnish)
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt (optional, to taste)
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper (optional, freshly cracked)
Directions
Step 1
Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp cloth or brushing off any dirt. Trim the stems if necessary and slice the mushrooms evenly into thick pieces.
Step 2
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Step 3
Once the oil is hot, add the minced ginger, garlic, and sliced red chilies. Stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Step 4
Increase the heat to high and add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Stir frequently to ensure they cook evenly.
Step 5
After about 5 minutes, the mushrooms will begin to release their moisture. Continue to stir-fry until most of the liquid has evaporated, and the mushrooms are golden brown, about 8-10 minutes.
Step 6
Reduce the heat to medium and drizzle in the soy sauce and sesame oil. Stir to coat the mushrooms evenly in the sauce.
Step 7
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and freshly cracked black pepper, if needed.
Step 8
Remove from heat and garnish with finely chopped green onions before serving.
Step 9
Serve hot as a side dish, or pair with steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
