Ingredients

  • 400g large oyster mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup white miso paste
  • 3 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 1/4 cup neutral frying oil
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
  • 2 thinly sliced scallions

Instructions

1
First, gently tear the oyster mushrooms into thick, bite-sized strips, ensuring you don't over-process them to maintain their signature 'meaty' texture.
2
Place the mushrooms in a large mixing bowl and dust them generously with cornstarch, shaking off any excess to ensure a thin, ultra-crispy coating.
3
Heat the neutral oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
4
Sear the mushrooms in a single layer for 3-4 minutes per side until they achieve a deep golden-brown, glass-like crunch.
5
While the mushrooms crisp, whisk together the miso, honey, soy sauce, vinegar, ginger, and garlic in a small bowl to create a balanced glaze.
6
Pour the glaze directly over the mushrooms in the pan during the final 30 seconds of cooking, tossing rapidly so the sauce caramelizes without burning.
7
Immediately plate the mushrooms, garnishing with toasted sesame seeds and fresh scallions for an aromatic, restaurant-quality finish.
