Oyster Mushroom Garlic Stir-Fry

Only cook mushrooms an expert has identified. Cook thoroughly. Have your find confirmed in person by an expert before cooking.

Ingredients

• 8 ounces (225 g) oyster mushrooms
• 1 tablespoon neutral oil
• 2 cloves garlic, sliced
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• Sliced green onion

Steps

1. Trim the tough base of each cluster and tear the mushrooms into strips.
2. Heat a wide pan over medium-high heat until hot. Add the oil.
3. Add the mushrooms in a single layer, in batches if needed, and cook without stirring for 2 to 3 minutes until browned on one side.
4. Stir and cook another 3 minutes until cooked through.
5. Add the garlic for 30 seconds, then the soy sauce and sesame oil.
6. Top with green onion and serve hot.

Cleaning and storage

• Wipe or brush off debris. Oyster mushrooms absorb water, so avoid soaking.
• Store in a paper bag in the fridge for a few days.
• They are delicate and spoil faster than many mushrooms, so cook them soon after picking.
