– 1 stick of salted butter
– 2 tablespoons of sauce soy
– 1 teaspoon fish sauce
-1 teaspoon brown sugar
– 2 tablespoons of chopped chives
Preparation:
Heats the skillet over medium-high heat and add 4 tablespoons of butter.
When the butter has melted, add the larger, browned mushrooms on one side. Once the mushrooms are golden brown on one side, add the smaller, thinner mushroom varieties. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes.
Add the soy sauce, fish sauce, sugar and chives. Let the liquids reduce a bit and then finish by adding the other half of the butter off the heat. The butter will emulsify with the soy sauce, fish, sugar and mushroom juice creating a delicious sauce.
