Description

Transform enoki mushrooms and seaweed into tasty Vegan 'Fish' with this simple plant-based hack! The realistic texture of the mushrooms combined with a flavorful sauce makes it a perfect snack or side dish with rice.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 3 bunches of 200g mushrooms
  • 6 seaweed sheets
  • 50g corn starch
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • Black pepper (to taste)
  • Chopped scallions (for topping)

Sauce:

  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 1 tsp each minced garlic and chili

Instructions

  1. Wash the enoki mushrooms and cut off the roots. Divide them into thick bunches.
  2. Lay out the seaweed sheets on a clean surface.
  3. Wrap each bunch in seaweed like a sushi roll and seal with a bit of water. Chop the seaweed roll into thin slices. Hold the smaller end as you cut to avoid breaking the rolls.
  4. In a bowl, mix the corn starch, salt and pepper. 
  5. Coat the mushrooms with the corn starch mixture.
  6. Heat oil in a pan on medium heat. 
  7. Fry the coated mushroom rolls until they turn golden brown on both sides.
  8. Remove the 'fish' from the pan and set aside.
  9. In the same pan, stir-fry the minced garlic and chili until fragrant.
  10. Add the soy sauce and water to the pan, creating a flavorful sauce.
  11. Return the 'fish' to the pan and simmer in the sauce for a few minutes, flipping occasionally.
  12. Garnish with chopped scallions.
