Ingredients
  

  • 10 oz enoki mushrooms cut in half lengthwise
  • 3 tablespoons chili oil or cooking oil of your choice
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon gochugaru Korean red pepper flakes
  • 1 tablespoon sweetener of your choice (sugar, maple syrup, agave nectar, or honey)
  • 1 tablespoon Korean fire chicken sauce or substitute with oyster sauce for a milder version
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon chopped green onions plus more for garnish
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • a pinch sesame seeds

Equipment

  • Large skillet or frying pan
  • Spatula or tongs
  • Small mixing bowl
  • Measuring spoons
  • Small skillet

Method
 

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add oil.
  2. Once the oil shimmers, spread the enoki mushrooms evenly in the pan and cook undisturbed for about 3 minutes.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, gochugaru, sweetener, fire chicken sauce, minced garlic, chopped green onions, and water until well combined.
  4. Flip the mushrooms and pour half of the sauce over them, cooking for another 4 to 5 minutes.
  5. Flip again and add the remaining sauce, cooking until it thickens and reduces, about 3 to 4 minutes.
  6. Transfer the Spicy Enoki Mushrooms to a serving plate, garnish with green onions and sesame seeds, and serve immediately.

Notes

Use fresh enoki mushrooms for the best texture and flavor. Adjust the amount of gochugaru based on your spice tolerance. Don’t skimp on the garlic—it adds depth to the dish. For leftovers, store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheat gently in a pan.
