Mushroom and Bok Choy Stir Fry

Mushroom and Bok Choy Stir FryToday I want to share a quick-and-easy mushroom and bok choy stir fry with you guys. This healthy vegetable side dish is seasoned with only olive oil, salt and ground black pepper, allows you to taste the delicate flavor of all the ingredients!

I like paring the bok choy with mushroom with making a stir-fry. For this dish, I used king oyster mushroom. It has a firm and meaty texture; the tastes is mild and can be described as sweet and nutty.

King Oyster MushroomKing oyster mushroom has the advantage of remaining firm when cooked. What I normally do is cutting them into thin slices and pan frying until they lightly browned before stir frying with the vegetables for a rich, concentrated flavor.

Stir Fry Mushroom and Bok ChoyTo prevent the dish from turning into a watery braise, I whisked a touch of potato starch with water and poured into the pan at the end. It helps to thicken the dish and gives the bok choy a brighter color.
