How to Make Stir-Fried Mushroom and Pork Slices

Stir-fried mushroom and pork slices is a quick, delicious, and versatile dish loved by many. Here’s a simple yet flavorful recipe to guide you.

Ingredients: 200g pork loin (sliced thin), 200g fresh shiitake mushrooms (stemmed and sliced), 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 bell pepper (sliced), 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp oyster sauce, 1 tsp sugar, 1 tbsp cooking oil, salt, and pepper to taste.

Steps:

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

2. Prep mushrooms: Soak shiitake mushrooms in warm water for 10 minutes if dried, then slice. Fresh mushrooms can be used directly.

3. Stir-fry: Heat oil in a wok over high heat. Add pork slices and stir-fry until browned (2-3 minutes). Remove and set aside.

4. Sauté aromatics: In the same wok, add garlic and bell pepper; stir-fry for 1 minute until fragrant.

5. Combine: Return pork to the wok. Add mushrooms, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until mushrooms are tender.

6. Season: Adjust salt and pepper if needed. Garnish with spring onions (optional) and serve hot with rice.

Tips: For extra flavor, marinate mushrooms with a dash of sesame oil. This dish pairs well with steamed rice or noodles, offering a perfect balance of savory and umami!
