Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Button mushrooms (or cremini mushrooms)
- 3 tbsp Soy sauce
- 2 tbsp Honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
- 1 tbsp Rice vinegar
- 1 tsp Sesame oil
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tsp Ginger, grated
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 2 stalks Green onions, sliced
- 1 tbsp Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp paper towel or gently brushing off any dirt. If they are large, cut them into halves or quarters for even cooking.
In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Stir well to combine and set aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the mushrooms to the skillet in a single layer and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms release their moisture and start to brown.
Once the mushrooms are golden, pour the prepared soy sauce mixture over them. Stir to coat the mushrooms evenly in the glaze.
Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and caramelize slightly. Be sure to stir frequently to prevent burning.
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the mushrooms with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if using.
Serve the soy glazed mushrooms warm as a side dish, or use them as a delicious topping for steamed rice or noodles.
