Pan Fried Oyster Mushrooms Recipe
- Prepare the mushrooms. Clean them with a slightly damp paper paper towel. Cut them in bite size. You can either remove their thick rubbery stems or leave them.
Melt butter in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Place the mushroom pieces in the hot skillet in a single layer. Cook them until golden and flip them over. - Add in crushed garlic cloves with their skin, chopped green onions, salt and pepper. Cook that side until golden too.
- Shake the skillet often and reduce the heat when it is needed until golden. Transfer them in a bowl and repeat the same steps for the remaining mushrooms.
- Serve immediately.
Pan Fried Oyster Mushrooms Recipe
- You shouldn’t wash or rinse mushrooms. You just need to clean them with a slightly damp paper towel. If you wash the mushrooms under water, they release too much water when you cook them, which is not something desired.
- You can either remove the thick stems or leave them. We cook them both ways. The stems are rubbery and chewy, but we are not that bothered.
- Don’t overload the pan. Fry the mushrooms in batches. Otherwise, they will be steamed.
- It’s not a good idea to make them ahead of time. They lose their nice texture as they sit, so the best thing is to fry them right before serving.
