How to Make Double Mushroom and Pork Stir-Fry

Double Mushroom and Pork Stir-Fry is a savory, umami-rich dish that’s quick to prepare and packed with flavor. Here’s a simple step-by-step guide to create this restaurant-quality meal at home.

Ingredients:

- 200g pork loin, thinly sliced

- 150g shiitake mushrooms, stemmed and sliced

- 150g oyster mushrooms, torn into small pieces

- 2 cloves garlic, minced

- 1 tbsp ginger, grated

- 2 tbsp soy sauce

- 1 tbsp oyster sauce

- 1 tsp sugar

- 1 tsp cornstarch (for pork marinade)

- 2 tbsp vegetable oil

- Salt and pepper to taste

- Optional: A pinch of sesame oil for finishing.

Instructions:

1. Marinate the pork: In a bowl, mix sliced pork with 1 tbsp soy sauce, cornstarch, and a pinch of pepper. Let it sit for 15 minutes.

2. Prepare the mushrooms: Clean shiitake and oyster mushrooms; pat dry. Shiitake can be soaked in warm water for 20 minutes if using dried ones.

3. Stir-fry: Heat oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add pork and stir-fry until no longer pink (2-3 minutes). Remove and set aside.

4. In the same pan, sauté garlic and ginger until fragrant (30 seconds). Add mushrooms and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until they soften and release liquid.

5. Combine: Return pork to the wok. Add soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, and a splash of water (if needed). Stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until everything is coated.

6. Finish: Taste and adjust seasoning. Drizzle with sesame oil, garnish with scallions (optional), and serve hot with rice or noodles.

This dish balances the meaty texture of pork with the earthy depth of two mushrooms, making it a comforting and satisfying meal. Enjoy!
