Japanese Butter Soy Shimeji Mushrooms

Ingredients

• 200 g shimeji mushrooms
• 1 tbsp unsalted butter
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tsp mirin
• 1 tsp sake
• 1 stalk green onions, chopped

Steps

1. Trim the base of the shimeji mushroom clusters and pull the mushrooms apart into individual stems or small clumps.
2. Heat a skillet or frying pan over medium heat and add the butter until melted and bubbling.
3. Add the shimeji mushrooms to the pan and sauté for about 2-3 minutes until they start to soften and turn slightly golden.
4. Pour in the soy sauce, mirin, and sake, then toss the mushrooms constantly to ensure even coating.
5. Continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes until the liquid has mostly evaporated and glazed the mushrooms.
6. Remove from heat, garnish with chopped green onions, and serve immediately.
