03 Step

Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Add vegetable oil and salt to the boiling water. Gently place baby bok choy into the boiling water and cook until tender-crisp, shiny, and a vibrant green color. (2-3 minutes)

Heat olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Add minced green onion and garlic to the hot oil and stir-fry until fragrant. (20 seconds)
06 Step
Recipe View
Add sliced portobello mushrooms to the skillet. Sprinkle lightly with salt. Cook, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms begin to soften and release their moisture. (5 minutes)
07 Step
Recipe View
Pour the prepared oyster sauce mixture into the skillet with the mushrooms. Stir continuously until the sauce thickens and evenly coats the mushrooms. (30 seconds - 1 minute)
08 Step
Recipe View
Pour the luscious mushroom sauce generously over the arranged baby bok choy on the platter. Serve immediately and enjoy! (1 minute)
For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the mushroom sauce.
Shiitake mushrooms can be substituted for portobello for a more intense earthy flavor.
Ensure the bok choy is not overcooked in the boiling water, as it will become mushy.
If you don't have potato starch, cornstarch can be used as a substitute.
For a vegan option, substitute the oyster sauce with a vegetarian oyster sauce alternative.
