Mushroom is usually prepared as a side dish more often than not. So, this time I'm going to let them take the center stage for once. This afternoon I was mulling about how to turn my recently purchased button mushrooms into something simple yet appetizing dish, so I dig into some recipe books and came out with my version of vegetarian mushroom.
Firstly, the grated ginger and sesame oil added will lend a unique flavor to this simple mushroom dish. Secondly, frying the fresh button mushrooms will retain their tender texture while keeping the mushrooms juicy inside. Combining these two and what we'll have is a healthy dish with very little additives. So let's savor the dish and boost our body with a good source of nutrients and antioxidant.

Hi I am new to your blog. I saw these mushrooms and they look like one of my favorite restaurant dish which make me eager to try. In step three, do I pot all the ingredients and bring to a boil in the wok? Does that make the sauce? Thank you so much for this recipe!
Yes, step 3 is to make the sauce. Hope you like the dish!
