Ingredients
- 6 dried shiitake mushrooms
Sauce
- 2 tablespoons dark soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce *Footnote 1
- 1 teaspoon sugar
Stir fry
- 12 oz thick Shanghai Noodles (or udon noodles) (*Footnote 2)
- 2 tablespoons peanut oil (or vegetable oil)
- 1/2 lb oyster mushrooms (or any other mushroom you prefer), cut to bite-size pieces
- 2 cloves garlic , minced
- 1 teaspoon minced ginger
- 1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine
- 2 tablespoons mushroom soaking water
- 8 talks garlic chives , or 4 green onions, cut into 1” (5 cm) pieces
Instructions
- Add the shiitake mushrooms into a medium-sized bowl and add enough warm water to cover. Rehydrate for 15 to 20 minutes, until the mushrooms have turned tender throughout. Reserve 2 tablespoons of mushroom soaking water. Drain the mushrooms and thinly slice them.
- Boil the noodles according to instructions. Then drain, rinse the noodles with cold running tap water to stop cooking and rinse off excess starch. Drain thoroughly and set aside.
- Heat the oil in a large pan or wok over high heat. Add the oyster mushrooms. Let sear, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 3 minutes.
- Add the sliced shiitakes. Stir and cook until the shiitakes gain some color, about 1 minute.
- Add the ginger and garlic into the pan, and toss for 30 seconds. Pour in the Shaoxing wine and the 2 tablespoons mushroom soaking water. Stir to deglaze the pan.
- Add the boiled noodles and toss a few times. Then drizzle the sauce over the noodles. Stir and cook until the noodles are evenly coated.
- Add the garlic chives. Stir and cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until the chives are wilted and the sauce is fully absorbed by the yi mein. Transfer the noodles to a serving platter.
Notes
- Vegan / Vegetarian Adaption: Use vegetarian oyster sauce to make this dish vegetarian.
- The fresh thick Shanghai noodles yield the best result due to their chewy texture. If you can get high quality fresh or dried udon noodles, they make a great alternative. When fresh noodles are not available, regular dried wheat noodles or spaghetti will work as well.
