GARLIC STIR-FRIED MUSHROOMS

By tulawdog

Ingredients

• 1 . About a pound of mushrooms
• 2 . one finely diced shallot
• 3 . one head of garlic
• 4 . 3-4 jalapenos
• 5 . 1 teaspoon of rice vinegar
• 6 . 1 teaspoon of kaffir lime leaves
• 7 . salt to taste

Preparation

Step 1

Wash and cut the mushrooms in bite-sized pieces. Cut the shallots and jalapenos. I prefer to smash the garlic keeping the skin. Frying the garlic along with skin gives it a different flavor profile and the skin turns crispy.

On a medium-high to high flame heat oil and add garlic. Stir-fry till the skin turns crispy. Then add shallots and jalapenos and continue stir frying till shallots begin to turn slightly golden brown.

Add mushrooms and salt to taste and continue cooking till mushrooms are nearly cooked through and begin to turn slightly brown (I presume the process is called maillard reaction.) Add the vinegar and cook till mushrooms are done.

Finish off with adding shredded kaffir lime leaves
