Add a punch of flavour to your mushrooms with some simple pantry items. This savoury Gochujang Mushroom recipe is the perfect side to any meal or enjoyed on its own over some rice or noodles!
In a bowl, combine the gochujang, soy sauce, mirin, brown sugar, and water.
Add the sliced mushrooms. Toss to combine and let it marinate for 10 minutes. Longer if you’d like.
In a skillet on medium heat, add in the oil and add the mushrooms to the skillet. Hold off on adding the marinade at the bottom of the bowl. Sauté the mushrooms until the mushrooms are cooked through.
To the reserved marinade, add cornstarch and mix to combine. Add the marinade to the skillet and simmer until the sauce is thick and coating the sliced mushrooms to your liking. You can skip this step if you don’t want saucy mushrooms but I highly recommend it!
Once thickened, serve immediately as a side or overtop a bowl of rice to make this into an easy mushroom bowl for lunch or dinner. I garnish with sesame seeds and green onions.
