Daikon Radish With Shiitake Mushrooms And Snow Peas Recipe by Chris Gan
Cooking Instructions ~17 minutes 1 Prepare all the vegetables: 🔹 Wash and peel the daikon radish. Cut it into large chunks (about 1.5” to 2 “ wide). 🔹 Wash the snow peas, then cut off their stems. Remove the fibrous strings on both sides. 🔹 Gently wash the mushrooms and wipe them with a paper towel to remove any dirt. Cut them into thick slices. 🔹 Mince the garlic (or pass it through a garlic press). 2 Have the other ingredients nearby and ready to use. 3 Bring a large pot of water to boil on the stove. 4 Blanch the snow peas by putting them into the boiling water for 1 minute. Scoop them out and place them in a colander to drain. 5 Blanch the shiitake mushrooms by putting them into the boiling water for 2 minutes. They will cook more once they are added to the dish later. 6 In a large, flat-bottomed pot or a large wok, sauté the minced garlic in a Tablespoon of neutral oil over medium-low heat for one minute or until slightly softened. Add the daikon radish to the pot and mix well to coat with the oil and garlic. 7 Add 3/4 cup water to the pot, then cover and steam the radish for 15 minutes, or until the pieces are tender. 8 Add 1/4 cup oyster sauce, 3 tablespoons shaoxing wine, and 2 heaping Tablespoons chili garlic sauce. Toss the daikon to mix and fully coat it with the sauce. 9 Add the shiitake mushrooms, mix, cover, and cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes. 10 Slice the green onions thinly. Add the snow peas and the green onions to the pot, and stir. 11 Taste and adjust the salt and/or spice, then serve! 12 Notes: Do NOT eat Shiitake mushrooms raw. Doing so can cause an intensely itchy dermatitis (rash) that lasts 2 to 3 weeks. This rash occurs in only about 1.8% of the population, so you likely won’t experience it. However, to be safe, only consume shiitake mushrooms fully cooked. 1 Prepare all the vegetables: 🔹 Wash and peel the daikon radish.
