Sautéed Mushroom and Broccoli Stir-Fry

🥦🍄 Sautéed Mushroom & Broccoli Stir-Fry

🧾 Ingredients

  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1½ cups mushrooms (button or cremini), sliced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil (or sesame oil for extra flavor)
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce (optional, but adds depth)
  • ½ tsp chili flakes (optional)
  • Salt & black pepper to taste
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds (optional garnish)

🔥 Instructions

  1. Blanch the broccoli (optional but recommended)
    Boil for 2 minutes, then transfer to cold water. This keeps it bright green and crisp.
  2. Sauté the mushrooms
    Heat oil in a pan or wok. Add mushrooms and cook on medium-high until they release moisture and turn golden.
  3. Add aromatics
    Stir in garlic and ginger. Cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  4. Add broccoli
    Toss in broccoli and stir-fry for 3–4 minutes.
  5. Add sauces
    Pour in soy sauce, oyster sauce, and chili flakes. Mix well and cook another 2 minutes.
  6. Finish & serve
    Adjust salt/pepper, sprinkle sesame seeds, and serve hot.

🍽️ Serving Ideas

  • Serve with steamed rice or noodles
  • Pair with grilled chicken or tofu for a complete meal

💡 Tips

  • Don’t overcrowd the pan—this keeps veggies crisp instead of soggy
  • High heat = better flavor (restaurant-style stir-fry)
  • Add bell peppers or carrots for extra color
