Cooking method
Step 1

Step 2

My tips and tricks:
When you fry oyster mushrooms, they lose their moisture very quickly. Therefore, never cook them for a long time, only do it over high heat and with a lot of oil. If you have a wok, it’s best to use it. And if you want your oyster mushrooms to become even more beautiful, then 2 minutes before the end of cooking, add 1 tbsp sugar and mix well. The sugar will coat the mushrooms and they will become shiny. And don’t worry, little sugar won’t affect the taste.
