Ingredients
- King Oyster mushrooms, smaller would be better for this
- cooking oil, your choice, I use Ghee, (Shortcut)
- salt and pepper, as desired
Instructions
- Cut of the root end of the mushrooms if not done when purchased and give them a quick rinse. This amount here makes 2 servings. These are the prefect size for this dish.
- Slice each mushroom lengthwise, about 1/4 inch thick.
- The smaller ones on the left simple cut in half lengthwise, the ones on the right were cut into 3 slices.
- Heat about 2 tablespoons of oil of your choice, ghee is highly recommended, in a non stick pan on medium heat. When hot add the mushrooms. Season with salt and pepper as desired.
- Turn the mushrooms after allowing them to cook for a few minutes. The mushrooms will release a little water as well, and the key to nice and tender and juicy mushrooms is to keep oil in the pan, don't let the mushrooms dry out.
- Turn often, and add a bit of oil as they cook down, edges are starting to brown. Season with additional black pepper if desired.
- Perfect mushrooms.
- Serve as a side dish with any meal.
Notes
Low cost per serving.
Shortcut: Homemade Ghee (Slow Cooker).
Variant: 1. Add a few sliced red Bird's Eye chilies with the mushrooms.

I bought the mushrooms in an open market a few days ago, and decided to make this as a side dish with some fish on 9 Dec 2018. These are the perfect size for this type of mushroom, tender and delicious. Tesco sells the larger ones that can be quite woody at times, so these smaller ones will be my choice from now on. Oil I used was my homemade ghee, perfect. My wife said these were tasty and tender, perfect, and I have to agree with her. Highly recommended.
