Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • If the heat is too high, the chili oil can burn instantly and impart a bitter taste throughout the dish, so always start stir-frying over low heat.
  • Mushrooms shrink and look unappealing when overcooked, so cut them large to maintain a pleasing, voluminous Chinese-style appearance.
  • Using a low-sodium, stir-fry-specific fish cake product helps keep the dish light and not overly salty while delivering a delightfully chewy texture.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to break away from the usual soy-sauce fish cake stir-fry and enjoy a spicy, sophisticated Chinese-style side dish.
  • Solo drinkers looking for a sweet, spicy, and savory dish with sauce that clings perfectly, working as both a rice accompaniment and a simple beer snack.
