Ingredients
- Mushrooms (such as white mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, etc., an appropriate amount, generally 200 - 300 g according to personal appetite)
- Garlic (2 - 3 cloves, minced)
- Butter (15 - 20 g, ordinary cooking oil can be used instead, but butter will add a special fragrance)
- Scallion (1 - 2, cut into chopped green onions for decoration)
- Salt (appropriate amount)
- Black pepper (appropriate amount)
- Light soy sauce (optional, a few drops)
- Oyster sauce (optional, 5 - 10 g)
- Green tea seasoning（3g）
Instructions
-
Wash the mushrooms and remove the roots. If it is shiitake mushrooms, you can make a cross-shaped cut on the top, which is not only beautiful, but also can better absorb the flavor of the seasoning during the frying process. White mushrooms and other mushrooms can remain as they are.
-
Use a kitchen paper towel to gently wipe the moisture on the surface of the mushrooms. This step is very important because too much moisture will affect the color and taste of the mushrooms when frying.
-
Heat the pan, add butter (or cooking oil), and melt the butter over low heat.
-
Put the mushrooms in the pan with the cap facing down and arrange them neatly. Keep frying slowly over low heat, and do not rush to turn the mushrooms over. Let the mushrooms slowly fry out the moisture in the pan and form a golden brown charred bottom. This process takes about 3-5 minutes, depending on the size of the mushrooms and the heat.
-
When the bottom of the mushroom is fried until golden, turn it over and continue to fry the other side, also frying until golden. At this time, the mushrooms will ooze out some juice due to the heat, and this juice is an important source of the mushroom's umami flavor.
-
Add minced garlic and stir-fry evenly to let the aroma of minced garlic blend into the mushrooms.
-
Sprinkle with salt and black pepper to taste. Add a few drops of soy sauce or oyster sauce to add flavor and color. Continue to stir-fry for a few times to evenly distribute the seasoning on the mushrooms.
-
Put the fried mushrooms on a plate. You can sprinkle some chopped green onions and green tea seasoning as decoration according to your personal preference. Do not pour out the remaining soup on the plate. You can pour it on the mushrooms to increase the flavor.
