About 10 days ago, I bought 5 packs of enoki mushrooms, because they were so cheap. I paid 1000 won (US $ 1.05) for 5 packs – Their usual price is 1000 won for 3 packs. However I often forget that it is not a good idea to buy something just because it is cheap without a reason, otherwise you are just going to throw it away without using it. What do you think?
Anyhow, I had used up 3 packs for other meals the other day and now had 2 more packs to go. Here is one of the rescue plans, very easy and simple one.
Ingredients (Enough for 2 people as a side dish)
(Expected preparation time – 5 minutes, Expected cooking time – less than 10 minutes)
- 1 egg
- 1 pack of enoki mushrooms
- 1/4 an onion
- 4 stalks of garlic chives
- 1/4 a carrot (small size)
- Pepper – 1 sprinkle
- Salt – 1 sprinkle
- White flour – 1 tbsp
- Sesame oil – 1 tsp
Preparation
- Finely chop the onion, garlic chives, and carrot.
- Cut the bottom 4-5 cm of the mushrooms off (the roots) and wash the rest for use.
- Add the flour and sesame oil onto the mushrooms then roll the mushrooms to coat the flour and sesame oil on its surface thoroughly.
- Beat the egg, add the pepper, salt, and all the vegetables, then mix them well.
Cooking
- Pre heat the pan.
- Add some oil.
- Scoop out spoonfuls of the mix with spoon and chopsticks. – you need chopsticks to place the mushrooms properly.
- Turn them over when one side is cooked.
- When both sides are cooked, serve them on the plate.
It feels like you are chewing some kind of meat. So it can be a good vegetarian food.
