Ingredients

  • 300g fresh oyster mushrooms
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
  • 2 thinly sliced scallions

Instructions

1
Begin by gently tearing the oyster mushrooms into bite-sized strips, ensuring you don't over-process them to maintain their natural texture.
2
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the white miso, maple syrup, rice vinegar, and smoked paprika until a smooth, velvety glaze forms.
3
Heat the avocado oil in a wide cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
4
Add the mushrooms in a single layer, searing undisturbed for 3-4 minutes until the edges turn golden brown and crispy.
5
Flip the mushrooms and pour the miso-maple glaze directly into the pan, tossing quickly for 60 seconds until the sauce caramelizes and coats every crevice.
6
Remove from heat immediately, garnish with sesame seeds and fresh scallions, and serve hot over steamed jasmine rice or wilted greens.
