Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb. Baby Bok Choy (I used regular bok choy)
1 ½ tbsp Vegetable Oil (I used olive oil)
1 - 2 small Dry Red Chinese Hot Peppers (I used 2 long red dry chilies from Indian store)
½ lb Shitake Mushrooms
¼ tsp Salt (adjust to taste)
⅛ tsp Black Pepper Powder (adjust to taste)
2 big Cloves of Garlic minced
½ tbsp grated Ginger
½ tbsp Sugar (I did not use it)
½ tsp. Sesame Oil
1 ½ tbsp Soya Sauce or Tamari Sauce (I used 1 tbsp. dark Soya sauce)
3 Scallions sliced diagonally (for garnish (it depends on the size of the scallion and used only 1))
½ tbsp Roasted Sesame seeds for garnish (opt.)

Steps:

  • In a 4 quart pan bring water to boil. Add 2 tsp. of salt.
  • Wash bok choy and cut off the stems. I left about 1-2″ of the stem towards the leaves but next time I will discard that too.
  • Once the water comes to a boil, drop the leaves in the water and cook for 1-2 minutes, until the leaves are barely cooked. I cooked for 2 minutes but if using baby bok choy, I would recommend less than 2 minutes.
  • Remove from water or drain in a colander and run under cold water. Pat dry the leaves and arrange in a platter or an oven safe dish. I let the leaves dry on paper towels until my mushrooms were ready.
  • Remove the caps of the mushrooms, wash and keep aside. If the mushrooms caps are big, cut them into two. Discard the stems.
  • Heat a wok or cast iron pan on high heat, add oil and heat until smoking hot. Add peppers, mushrooms and stir.
  • Season with salt & black pepper, and stir fry for 2 minutes until mushrooms shrink in size.
  • Reduce the heat; add garlic, ginger, sesame oil, soya/tamari sauce and sugar if using. Stir fry for 1 - 2 minutes.
  • Place bok choy on a platter or an oven safe dish in a single layer or in two layers as I did. Spoon mushrooms on to arranged bok choy.
  • Sprinkle scallions and sesame seeds on mushrooms to garnish.
  • I served it at room temperature but if one wishes, cover it with foil and reheat in a hot oven for 10 - 15 minutes. If reheating, garnish the mushrooms after reheating.

GLAZED SHIITAKES WITH BOK CHOY

Gorgeous glazed shiitake mushrooms and tender green bok choy sparked with ginger, sesame and hot pepper work beautifully against more staid flavors, so consider serving them next to a traditional roast chicken or turkey. They also are delicious draped over a pile of rice.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Mushrooms: Select fresh, meaty shiitake mushrooms for the best flavor and texture. Look for mushrooms with a deep, rich color and no signs of bruising or blemishes.
  • Clean the Mushrooms Properly: Wipe the mushrooms gently with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Avoid submerging them in water, as this can dilute their flavor.
  • Slice the Mushrooms Evenly: Cut the shiitake mushrooms into uniform slices to ensure even cooking. This will help them caramelize beautifully in the sauce.
  • Use a Variety of Sauces: Experiment with different sauces to create a unique flavor profile for your glazed shiitake mushrooms. Try a simple soy-based sauce, a sweet and sour sauce, or a spicy chili sauce.
  • Cook the Mushrooms Over Medium Heat: Cooking the mushrooms over medium heat allows them to caramelize and absorb the flavors of the sauce without burning.
  • Garnish with Fresh Bok Choy: Add a touch of freshness and color to your dish by garnishing with sautéed bok choy. The slightly bitter flavor of the bok choy pairs well with the sweet and umami flavors of the mushrooms.

Conclusion:

Glazed shiitake mushrooms with bok choy is a versatile and flavorful dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, side dish, or main course. With its umami-rich mushrooms, sweet and tangy sauce, and crisp bok choy, this dish is sure to impress your taste buds. Experiment with different sauces and garnishes to create a personalized dish that reflects your unique culinary preferences. Whether you're a seasoned chef or a home cook looking for a new and exciting recipe, glazed shiitake mushrooms with bok choy is a must-try dish that is sure to become a favorite.
