Ingredients

Scale

For the stir fry:

  • 2 cups (300 g) broccoli florets
  • 2 cups (250 g) mushrooms, sliced (button or cremini)
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (or sesame oil for extra flavor)
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger (optional)

For the sauce:

  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoons water

Optional garnish:

  • Sesame seeds
  • Chopped green onions

Instructions

  1. Prepare the sauce:
    • In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water until smooth. Set aside.
  2. Cook the broccoli:
    • Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the broccoli and sauté for 3–4 minutes, stirring frequently. Add a splash of water (about 2 tablespoons) to steam the broccoli slightly and make it tender-crisp. Remove and set aside.
  3. Cook the mushrooms:
    • In the same skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of oil. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for 4–5 minutes, until browned and softened.
  4. Combine vegetables and sauce:
    • Return the broccoli to the skillet. Add the minced garlic and ginger, and stir-fry for 1 minute until fragrant.
    • Pour the sauce over the vegetables and toss well to coat. Cook for another 2–3 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the broccoli and mushrooms evenly.
  5. Serve:
    • Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with sesame seeds or chopped green onions if desired. Serve hot as a side dish or over rice or noodles for a complete meal.

Notes

  • For a protein boost, add tofu, chicken, or shrimp to the stir fry.
  • Use tamari or coconut aminos for a gluten-free version.
  • Add carrots, bell peppers, or snap peas for more vegetable variety.
