Ingredients
- 16 medium shiitake mushrooms
- 1 1/2 tablespoons garlic (minced)
- 2 red Thai bird chilies (chopped)
- 1 bundle mung bean vermicelli (50g/1.75 ounces)
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce (or vegetarian oyster sauce)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons light soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons hot water
- 3/4 teaspoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon cilantro (chopped)
Instructions
- Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Remove the stems from the shiitake mushrooms, and rinse them to remove any dirt.
- Add the minced garlic and chopped chilies to a small heatproof bowl. Set aside.
- When the water is boiling, add the mung bean vermicelli. You’ll see them soften immediately when they hit the hot liquid. Remove the noodles with a strainer or pasta spoon, drain, and set aside.
- Add the mushrooms to the boiling water, and blanch until tender, about 2 minutes.
- Drain, and when they’re cool enough to handle, use a paring knife to score the mushrooms with a crisscross pattern, cutting deep into the mushroom without slicing all the way through. Brush the mushrooms with oyster sauce or vegetarian oyster sauce.
- Take a small amount of the glass noodles, forming it into a nest around your index and middle fingers. Place on top of each mushroom.
- Heat the oil in a small saucepan until it’s shimmering. Pour about 1 tablespoon of the oil over the garlic and chilies, and set the rest of the oil back on the stove to keep warm.
- Add the light soy sauce, hot water, and sugar to the garlic/chili mixture. Stir until combined, and spoon over the top of the noodles on each mushroom. Drizzle any remaining sauce evenly over the mushrooms as well.
- Heat up your oil again until it’s shimmering, and carefully pour a small amount over each mushroom. Any garlic on the noodles should sizzle on contact. Sprinkle with cilantro, and serve.
