Description
A quick and flavorful Asian mushroom recipe featuring enoki mushrooms topped with a savory garlic scallion sauce.
Ingredients
14 ounces enoki mushrooms (400g)
2 tablespoons oil
2 cloves garlic (minced)
3 tablespoons light soy sauce
½ teaspoon sugar
1 scallion (finely chopped)
Instructions
1. Be gentle when handling these enoki mushrooms. Trim away about 1-inch of the root section. Use your fingers to tear the enoki mushrooms into small bite-size bundles and line them up neatly. Rinse clean and drain.
2. Prepare a wok with boiling water, and blanch the enoki mushrooms in two batches, cooking each batch for about 1 minute. Drain off the water and transfer the mushrooms to your serving plate.
3. In a small saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the garlic, and cook for about 10 seconds (no need to brown the garlic). Now add the light soy sauce, sugar, and scallions. Bring the sauce to a boil, and turn off the heat. Slowly pour the sauce over the enoki mushrooms, and serve.
Notes
Handle enoki mushrooms gently to maintain their texture. Don’t overcook the sauce; you want the fresh scallion flavor.
