Easy Mushroom Stir Fry Recipe
This is a super easy and quick mushroom stir fry recipe that is perfect for an evening snack with beer or just as an appetizer. It is wholesome and tasty.
Ingredients
- 200 gm. button mushroom sliced
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- 1 tbsp. basil leaves chopped
- Salt to taste
- 1 tbsp. black pepper freshly powdered
- 2 tbsp. red wine optional
- 1 tsp. lemon juice
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a pan. Add minced garlic and fry for 30 seconds.
- Add sliced mushroom along with fresh pepper, half of basil leaves and salt.
- Your mushroom will release water. Add red wine (if using) and cook on high heat for a minute.
- Take the mushroom out in a plate. You can cook the sauce some more say about 2-3 minutes after sprinkling lemon juice on it.
- Now spread the thickish sauce on the mushroom and serve hot garnished with remaining basil leaves.
- Your mushroom stir fry is ready to be eaten.
Notes
- Don't overcook the mushroom. They should stay juicy and plump.
- You can use dried basil or any other Italian herb of choice in case you don't have fresh basil at hand. Dill or rosemary are good too.
- I like to use a slosh of red wine when I am feeling indulgent but it is optional and no need to use if you don't like to use red wine in your cooking.
- You could do the same stir fry using other veggies like broccoli, zucchini etc. Just remember that they will require more cooking time.
- You could substitute olive oil with butter if you so desire.

Gosh I love mushrooms and we often have them. I do something similar to this apart from the wine. That sounds like a delicious twist.
Rachna says
It really is tasty if you like wine. Else the mushrooms are tasty enough as is. 🙂

I love mushroom stir fry, and it’s a staple at our place. But I usually don’t add other veggies to it. This sounds and looks delicious though.

There was a time when we lived in Scotland for a couple of months as the husband had a project there. I ate this dish daily over there. 🙂 You can imagine my love for mushroom. Plus I loved all the varieties shiitake, portobello etc. that are even more flavourful than button mushrooms that we get here.

I love mushrooms. I usually add them while making mix veg. Never tried making stir fry. Well, now I know what to do ?
Rachna says
Oh you really must make this. It is such a tasty treat.

I don’t like mushrooms and some day I will tell you why. I can eat but if there are no veggies left in the world, maybe then I would head to mushrooms. Having said that, you can make anything taste good. Jadoo hai haathon mein ?
