  • 1/2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1-2 tbsp toasted sesame oil

Instructions

  • Trim the root ends and separate the mushrooms. Rinse lightly and pat dry.
  • Chop garlic and scallions.
  • In a small bowl, mix gochujang, gochugaru, light soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, agave syrup and toasted sesame oil.
  • Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Saute garlic and scallions for 1-2 minutes.
  • Pour gochujang sauce, water, mix and let it sizzle. Place enoki mushrooms neatly on the pan. Close the lid and cook enoki mushrooms for 5 minutes.
  • As they're cooking, spoon the sauce over the mushrooms. Add more water if sauce becomes too thick. Stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes until coated and slightly caramelized.
  • Sprinkle with green onions, toasted sesame seeds and red chilies. Serve hot with rice, noodles, or in lettuce wraps. Enjoy!
