About this dish
With 180 g of king oyster and shiitake mushrooms to 200 g of beef, there is nearly as much mushroom as meat in every bite.

The mushrooms are wiped clean rather than washed, added to beef already browned in butter, and stir-fried hard until they wilt before soy sauce goes in around the edge of the pan.
Ingredients
Instructions
- 1
Wipe the king oyster and shiitake mushrooms with paper towels instead of rinsing, then slice them thickly.
Cut the beef into bite-size pieces, thinly slice the onion, and slice the green onion for finishing.
- 2
Heat a wide pan over high heat for about 1 minute, then melt the 15 g butter.
Spread the beef in one layer and sear for about 2 minutes, turning only occasionally so the surface browns instead of steaming.
- 3
When most of the beef has changed color, add the onion and 1 tsp minced garlic, then lower to medium heat.
Stir-fry for about 1 minute until the garlic smells fragrant, but add the mushrooms before it browns or burns.
- 4
Add the king oyster and shiitake mushrooms and raise the heat to medium-high.
Cook for about 3 minutes, stirring, until their moisture cooks off, the pieces soften slightly, and the edges look glossy rather than wet.
- 5
Pour the 2 tbsp soy sauce around the edge of the pan so it sizzles, then toss everything for about 1 minute.
Turn off the heat when only a little sauce remains on the bottom and it coats the beef and mushrooms evenly.
- 6
Divide 2 cups warm rice among bowls and top evenly with the beef, mushrooms, and pan sauce.
Finish with 20g green onion and serve immediately.
