Description
These Salt and Pepper Mushrooms are crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and tossed with garlic, chili, and that signature peppery kick. It’s the kind of dish you’d order at a cozy restaurant… but it comes together so easily at home.

- 200g oyster mushrooms

- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup corn starch
- Chilli, garlic and spring onions
Instructions
- Finely chop the chilli, garlic and spring onions.
- Wash or wipe the mushroom with a damp cloth. Then tear each mushroom into bite-sized clusters.
- Mix water with flour (1:1) to form a batter and dip the shredded mushrooms until evenly coated.
- Heat the pan to medium heat, then fry the coated mushrooms until light golden and crispy on both sides.
- Set aside, then use the same pan to sauté the chilli, garlic, and spring onions until fragrant.
- Put the mushrooms back in the pan and stir fry for 1-2min.
- Add salt and pepper and stir evenly before turning off the heat.
- Garnish with chilli and spring onions before serving.
Notes
If you wash the mushrooms, make sure to let them dry a bit so it’s easier to coat and fry them.
Don’t over-fry the mushrooms since we need to stir-fry them again.
Don’t overcrowd the pan when frying the mushrooms.
You can add more salt later or make a dipping sauce, so it’s advised to season it lightly while cooking.
