Stir-fry Royale Chives & Hon Shimeji

Stir-fry Royale Chives & Hon Shimeji Recipe
There is quite a bit of dirt in these royale chives, so be sure to rinse them thoroughly to get rid of all the soil before cooking.
You can replace hon shimeji (beech mushrooms) with freshly sliced mushrooms such as shiitake, button or king oyster.
Ingredients:
- 1 packet (150g) royale chives (青龙菜)
- 5 grams dried salted fish diced see cooking note below
- 5 cloves garlic finely chopped
- 4 thin slices ginger sliced to long thin strips
- 1 finger-length red chilli sliced thinly; optional
- 75g ends-trimmed hon shimeji mushrooms
- 1/2 tsp mushroom seasoning powder see cooking note
- 1 tbsp water add more if needed
- tiny pinch of salt to taste
- 1 tbsp Chinese wine (Hua Tiao/Shaoxing)
Directions:
- Prepare royale chives by cutting them to five uniform sections. Wash the chives thoroughly to get rid of the excess dirt and spin dry.
- Fry salted fish. Heat oil in a wokpan. Add diced salted fish and fry until golden.
- Fry aromatics & mushrooms. Add garlic, ginger and chilli. Cook briskly until aromatic. Add mushrooms and stir fry until just softened.
- Add prepared chives, mushroom powder and water. Stir fry on high heat until half withered. Then drizzle Chinese wine along the walls of the wokpan. Continue stir-frying until the chives are just cooked and still green.
Cooking Note(s):
- If you do not want to use salted fish, omit it and use a bit more seasonings (such as salt, mushroom powder or soy sauce), to taste.
- I use mushroom seasoning powder as a delicious MSG-free seasoning for all my vegetable stir-fries. You can substitute it with appropriate amount of salt, soy sauce or fish sauce.

Those mushrooms are my top favourite. They are so good in stirfries and hotpots :-))
This looks delish!! I love those mushrooms but can’t pronounce them correctly ;)
青龙菜 – is it commonly available in SG? Curious how it taste like . Taste like chives?
