Salad with oyster mushrooms

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 45 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make a salad with oyster mushrooms? Prepare your food. Instead of Chinese cabbage, you can use regular white cabbage, but with Chinese cabbage the salad will be more tender. Various head lettuces, such as iceberg, not leaf lettuce, are also suitable.

2. STEP 2

   

   Peel the onion and cut into half rings of medium thickness. Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over moderate heat. Add chopped onion. Stirring with a spatula, fry the onion until soft and slightly golden.

3. STEP 3

   

   Wash the oyster mushrooms. Do not wet the mushrooms too much; they will absorb water and become watery. It is better to wipe them with a damp sponge. Cut off the dense part of the mushrooms at the base, and cut the mushrooms themselves into strips of medium thickness. Add chopped mushrooms to the frying pan with the onions.

4. STEP 4

   

   Stirring occasionally, fry the oyster mushrooms with onions until the mushrooms are soft. All released mushroom juice should evaporate completely. Remove the prepared mushrooms and onions from the heat and cool to room temperature.

5. STEP 5

   

   Chop the Chinese cabbage thinly and place in a large bowl.

6. STEP 6

   

   Wash the fresh cucumber, cut into thin strips and add to the cabbage. Be sure to taste the cucumber before slicing to see if it is bitter.

7. STEP 7

   

   Add the cooled oyster mushrooms fried with onions to the bowl with the salad. Fry the sesame seeds a little in a dry frying pan until golden brown, cool and add to the salad.

8. STEP 8

   

   Season the salad with vegetable oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper and mix. The salad with oyster mushrooms is ready to serve immediately after preparation. You can supplement the dish with chopped herbs to your taste when serving. Bon appetit!

I love different dishes with oyster mushrooms. I add them to salads and just fry them with potatoes. Always delicious!

I bought oyster mushrooms and decided to cook something unusual with them. Luckily, I found a recipe for salad with oyster mushrooms on the website. I have never eaten or cooked anything like this before. In the salad I replaced Chinese cabbage with regular white cabbage. When frying the mushrooms and onions, I added a pinch of oregano. Otherwise I followed the recipe. I really liked drying the sesame seeds in a dry frying pan; after this procedure, the sesame seeds gave the salad a slight nutty flavor. I really liked the salad. It turned out very light and fresh. Next time I’ll try to add a clove of garlic and a tablespoon of soy sauce (to make it completely oriental), but this is not at all necessary, the salad is harmonious and self-sufficient. Thanks for the recipe, I will use it and recommend it to everyone.
