How can I start eating mushrooms for health benefits even if I don't like them?
Such a question arose a few years ago.
And after a lot of trial and error I found some ways to enjoy eating mushroom.
This is one of the easy topping recipe on repeat.
(If you want to use diced firm tofu instead of mushroom it's also possible. )
Ingredients for 3 small topping portion.
100g Oyster mushrooms
1tbsp heat stable oil
1tbsp corn starch
A container with a lid
Seasoning (dry)
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp vegan broth powder (or a pinch of salt)
1/2 tsp sweet paprika powder
1/2 tsp cumin powder
Seasoning(wet)
1tsp 〜 1tbsp apricot jam or any sweetener
1tsp soy sauce.
STEP 1
Add 1tbsp of corn starch and 100g of oyster mushroom in a container.
Place a lid and gently shake it.
This way, your hands can stay clean and there is no waste.
STEP 2
Heat 1tbsp oil in a frying pan.
STEP 3
Place all the mushrooms in one layer.
STEP 4
As soon as they begin to water, press down on them with a spatula.
This way the mushrooms will crisp up quickly.
STEP 5
After 5mins or so the top side is still juicy, but the bottom side gets crunchy.
Flip over at this point.
STEP 6
The bottom side will be crispy in a couple of minutes.
STEP7 （Optional)
Tear or loosen the mushroom chunks.
Turn off the heat not to burn the spices in the next step.
STEP 8
Sprinkle spices over the fried mushrooms first.
Then add 1tbsp apricot jam and 1tsp soy sauce.
Toss with the sauce and that is it.
The sticky mushroom goes well with such an Asian dish as well as any green salad.
Enjoy :)
