Pan Fried Oyster Mushrooms

Prep 5 minCook 12 minServes 2Easy

The technique that makes every other mushroom dish better: a hot dry pan, patience, then butter, garlic and thyme at the end. Crisp edges, deep flavour, no sogginess.

Method

  1. Heat a large, heavy frying pan over a medium-high heat until properly hot.
  2. Add the oil, then the mushrooms in a single layer — don't crowd the pan; cook in two batches if needed. Leave them undisturbed for 3–4 minutes until they start to brown.
  3. Stir and cook for another 3–4 minutes until golden all over.
  4. Turn the heat down, add the butter, garlic and thyme, and spoon the foaming butter over the mushrooms for 2–3 minutes until they're deep brown and crisp at the edges.
  5. Remove the thyme stalks, season with salt and pepper, and serve — as a side, on toast, or through pasta.
