Chilli Garlic Mushrooms


Chili garlic sauce has many versatile uses, from a condiment to a base for Indo-Chinese dish. We love Mushrooms and I have made this recipe over and over again. It's easy, yummy & attractive. It's a quick fix meal that one can make little time and yet looks like one has done so much to make it.
My kids love it too.

This recipe serves 2 people


Ingredients:

  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 cups of sliced button mushrooms
  • 1 cup of medium chopped red & green bell peppers
  • 1/2 cup of medium chopped red onion
  • 4 large cloves of garlic minced
  • 2-3 Thai green chillies cut into long thin strips
  • 1/4 cup of finely chopped cilantro for garnish
  • 1-2 tsp of toasted sesame seeds
  • 1 1/2 tbsp of low sodium Soy Sauce
  • 1 tbsp Red Jalapeno spread
  • 1/2 tbsp Sambal Olek
  • 1 tbsp ketchup
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1/2 tbsp corn starch
  • Salt & black pepper to taste

Method:

  1. Mix all the sauces, along with salt and pepper, together and whisk till it all combines well. Adjust to your taste. Set aside.
  2. In a large wok, heat some oil, add all the veggies along with garlic and chillies and saute every thing on high flame till the vegetables become a little tender.
  3. Add the sauce and mix it well with the vegetables. Saute for a few minutes and then add corn starch to thicken the sauce. It should be like a very thick gravy.
  4. Turn off the heat and garnish with toasted sesame seeds and cilantro.
  5. Serve hot!
