Ingredients

  • 1 pound bok choy cleaned
  • 1 bunch hon shimeji brown beech mushrooms, cleaned of any dirt and separated
  • 1 tbsp canola or other neutral oil

Sauce

  • 3 tbsp gochujang
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • 1 clove garlic minced

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, combine all the ingredients for the sauce. Set aside.
  • Bring two cups of water to a boil in a large pot. Add bok choy and cover. Stir occasionally, until the bok choy is slightly softened, the leaves will be wilted. Cook about 3 minutes, then drain.
  • Heat a large skillet (or a wok if you have one) over medium high heat. Add canola, then mushrooms, tossing so they don't burn. Cook about 4 minutes, then add sauce and remove from pan. Add bok choy and cook for 3 - 4 minutes, tossing frequently.
  • Remove from heat, top with mushrooms and serve.

Notes

If you can't find bok choy, you can substitute with cabbage, swiss chard or even kale. You need a vegetable that will hold up to stir-frying.
If the mushrooms are hard to find, use regular cremini mushrooms or button mushrooms. If you can get portobellos, those would be a good substitute too. If you're lucky and see shiitakes, grab them.
