How to Stir-Fried King Oyster Mushroom with Pork

Stir-fried king oyster mushroom with pork is a savory, umami-rich dish that’s quick to prepare and perfect for busy weeknights. Here’s a simple step-by-step guide to achieve a restaurant-quality result at home.

Ingredients:

- 200g king oyster mushrooms, sliced into 1cm thick strips

- 150g pork loin, thinly sliced and marinated in 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp cornstarch, and a pinch of pepper for 10 minutes

- 2 cloves garlic, minced

- 1 bell pepper, sliced (optional for color)

- 2 tbsp cooking oil

- Seasonings: 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp oyster sauce, ½ tsp sugar, and a pinch of salt

Instructions:

1. Prep the Mushrooms: Rinse the mushrooms and pat dry. Sauté them in hot oil for 3-4 minutes until lightly golden to enhance their flavor. Remove and set aside.

2. Cook the Pork: In the same pan, stir-fry the marinated pork over high heat until no longer pink (about 2-3 minutes). Remove and keep warm.

3. Combine Ingredients: Add garlic and bell pepper to the pan, stir-frying for 1 minute until fragrant. Return the mushrooms and pork to the pan.

4. Season and Serve: Pour in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar. Toss everything together for another minute until evenly coated. Adjust salt to taste and serve hot with steamed rice.

Tips: For extra texture, blanch the mushrooms in boiling water for 1 minute before stir-frying. This dish pairs well with a dash of sesame oil for a nutty finish. Enjoy your delicious homemade meal!
