Main Ingredients

Black Pepper Sauce

Method

Prep the Mushrooms

  1. 1

    Clean the king oyster mushrooms with a damp cloth and cut them into thick slices or batons, about 1/2 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Toss mushroom pieces in 3 tablespoons of cornstarch until evenly coated. Shake off excess.

Fry the Mushrooms

  1. 3

    Heat 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a non-stick or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Add the mushrooms in batches and fry until golden brown and crispy on all sides, about 2–3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Make the Sauce

  1. 5

    In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, water, sugar, and black pepper. In a separate bowl, mix 1 tsp cornstarch with 1 tbsp water to make a slurry.

  2. 6

    In the same pan, add 1 tbsp of oil. Sauté garlic and ginger until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

  3. 7

    Pour in the black pepper sauce mixture and bring to a simmer. Stir in the cornstarch slurry and cook until the sauce thickens, about 1 minute.

Combine and Serve

  1. 8

    Add the fried mushrooms to the sauce and toss to coat evenly.

  2. 9

    Garnish with sliced green onions and serve sizzling hot, ideally on a preheated cast iron plate.
