Elevate your weeknight meals with this quick and flavorful Dairy-Free Stir-Fried Mushrooms recipe! Perfectly tender button or cremini mushrooms are infused with the bold flavors of garlic, ginger, and a savory soy sauce glaze, enhanced by a hint of sweetness from maple syrup and a tangy touch of rice vinegar. Ready in just 20 minutes, this easy mushroom dish is not only dairy-free but can also be made gluten-free by using tamari. Tossed with scallions and optional red chili flakes for extra heat, these stir-fried mushrooms make a versatile side dish or a satisfying main when served over fluffy rice or silky noodles. Ideal for vegan or plant-based cooking enthusiasts, this recipe showcases the magic of simple ingredients prepared with precision.
Clean the mushrooms thoroughly using a damp paper towel or cloth, and slice them into even pieces for consistent cooking.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the sesame oil and allow it to heat for about 30 seconds.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet. Stir for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn them.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Toss to coat them evenly in the oil, garlic, and ginger. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms release their moisture and begin to brown.
In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, rice vinegar, and maple syrup. Pour this mixture over the mushrooms and stir to coat them evenly.
Sprinkle the black pepper and red chili flakes (if using) over the mushrooms. Stir and cook for another 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the sliced scallions for a fresh, aromatic finish.
Serve hot as a side dish, or over rice or noodles for a complete main meal.
