Oyster Sauce Neutari Mushroom Stir-Fry

Oyster Sauce Neutari Mushroom Stir-Fry is a simple side dish that can be prepared in just 10 minutes. The tender neutari mushrooms, crisp vegetables, and savory oyster sauce create an irresistible combination that pairs perfectly with rice. The key is to cook slowly over medium-low heat rather than high heat to ensure the mushrooms cook through without burning.

Benefits of Neutari Mushrooms

Neutari mushrooms (oyster mushrooms) are rich in dietary fiber, making them excellent for digestive health and popular for weight management due to their low calorie content. They contain beta-glucans that help boost immune function, and are abundant in B vitamins that aid in fatigue recovery. Their mild flavor makes them versatile for various dishes.

Cooking Tips

The key to this dish is heat control. High heat will char the outside while leaving the inside undercooked, so always cook over medium or medium-low heat. Adding 1 tablespoon of water is crucial—it keeps the mushrooms tender and moist. Since oyster sauce is already salty, use salt sparingly and adjust to taste. Add green onion and garlic at the end and turn off the heat, allowing the residual heat to release their aromatic flavors.

Storage and Serving

The finished stir-fry can be refrigerated for 2-3 days. It's delicious as a rice side dish, works wonderfully as a rice bowl topping, makes an excellent kimbap filling, or can be tossed with noodles. Its quick preparation makes it perfect for busy mornings or lunchbox side dishes.
