Sticky Mushrooms & Oysters
Excellent dish that goes together quickly. Perfect use for oyster meat, and you can use any fresh mushrooms you prefer.
Ingredients
- 1 pint fresh oyster meat, drained, (2 cups)
- 75-150 grams fresh mushrooms, your choice, (3-5 oz)
- 2 eggs
- 3 tablespoons rice flour
- 1 tablespoon corn starch
- ⅔ cup water
- ¼ cup light soy sauce, or more to taste
- ½ teaspoon white pepper powder
- ½ teaspoon sugar
- 6 cloves garlic, smashed and minced
- ¼ cup spring onion, sliced, white and green. or chopped coriander
- 2-3 tablespoons cooking oil
Instructions
- Mix together the rice flour, corn starch and water to make a slurry. Set aside.
- Place the well drained oyster meat in a mixing bowl. Add the eggs and mix together well.
- Mushrooms, coriander, and garlic all prepped. I used 75 grams of Shiitake mushrooms, stems removed and sliced, and coriander in place of the spring onion.
- Heat the oil in a large non stick pan then add the garlic and fry until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
- To the pan, add the mushrooms and oysters and stir in the flour slurry, stir to remove any lumps.
- When the mixture is lump free, add the soy sauce, sugar, white pepper, and spring onions, cook, stirring often, for about 30 seconds to a minute. Remove from heat.
- Serve with rice on the side.
Notes
I buy oysters from local fishermen for 50 Baht/pint. This is low cost. If sourcing from Tesco, you might be over $1 per serving. I will verify the Tesco cost.
