Instructions
Preparation
Cut the base of the mushrooms, soak in salt water for 2-3 minutes, rinse thoroughly, and let them drain. Slice thinly or cut into small pieces depending on the type of mushroom.
Peel the loofah, cut off the ends, and rinse clean. Cut in half and slice into diagonal pieces about 1.5cm thick.
Peel the onions and slice thinly.
Cut the green onions into approximately 2cm long segments.
Cooking Process
Add 2 tablespoons of cooking oil to a pan. Once the oil is hot, add the onions and sauté until fragrant. Next, add the mushrooms as they need more time to cook than the loofah. When the mushrooms are well coated with oil, season with some flavor enhancer or broth mix for a deeper taste. Sauté the mushrooms for about 3 minutes on high heat to avoid excess water.
Then add the loofah, stirring well. Season to taste with oyster sauce, flavor enhancer, fish sauce. Continue to sauté for about 2 more minutes until both mushrooms and loofah are cooked.
Finally, add the green onions, stir quickly for 5-6 seconds then turn off the heat.
