How to Make 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 beloved for its tender-crisp texture. Here’s a simple yet delicious recipe:

Ingredients:

- 200g king oyster mushrooms, sliced lengthwise

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

- 2 garlic cloves, minced

- 1 bell pepper (any color), sliced

- 2 tbsp cooking oil

- Seasoning: 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp oyster sauce, ½ tsp sugar, and a dash of sesame oil

Steps:

1. Prep: Rinse mushrooms and pat dry; slice pork into thin strips. Marinate as above.

2. Stir-fry: Heat oil in a wok over medium-high. Add pork and stir-fry until no longer pink (2-3 mins). Remove and set aside.

3. Cook mushrooms: In the same wok, sauté garlic until fragrant (30 secs). Add mushrooms and stir-fry 4-5 mins until lightly golden and tender.

4. Combine: Return pork to the wok. Add bell pepper, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar. Toss well for 1-2 mins until coated.

5. Finish: Drizzle with sesame oil, stir once, and serve hot with steamed rice.

Tips: For extra flavor, blanch mushrooms in boiling water for 1 minute before stir-frying to enhance tenderness. Adjust seasonings to taste—this dish balances savory, sweet, and umami notes perfectly!
