Edamame and mushrooms stir-fry (‘毛豆炒杏鲍菇’, máodòu chǎo xìng bào gū) is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that I love to make for my lunch or dinner. This 20-minute recipe is made with fresh frozen edamame beans, King Oyster mushrooms, and then tossed in a simple soy sauce mixture.

Stir-fry is one of my favorite cooking methods to turn vegetables into a flavorful meal. I have lost count as to how many variations of stir-fries that I’ve made at home since the combinations are endless. So, let’s make one of them today with the easy steps below.

How to make Edamame and Mushrooms Stir-Fry

First, sauté the crumbled tofu until golden, then continue to cook the chopped King Oyster mushrooms until fragrant.

Push the two ingredients aside, add a little more oil and sauté the ginger slices until they form a nice brown layer on the side. Add the chili, garlic, and continue to cook for about 30 seconds. I added some toasted sesame oil for more flavor but this step is optional.

Add the sauce, sugar, edamame beans and give it a quick toss until all ingredients are incorporated. Finally, swirl in cornstarch slurry and toss, then serve warm with your favorite grain or with lettuce cups.

Edamame and Mushrooms Stir-Fry Key ingredients

  • Spices – I love to add ginger in the mix along with garlic. For anyone who can’t have alliums, ginger is definitely the go-to ingredients for many stir-fries dishes.
  • Protein – Tofu is one of my favorite ingredients to use but other alternatives include vegan ham.
  • Sauce – In this recipe, I used a mixture of soy sauce with a touch of sugar to create a savory sauce. For more of an umami flavor, you can try my Vegan Stir-Fry sauce which is very similar to vegan oyster sauce.
  • Cornstarch slurry – You will find that I love to add a tad bit of this towards the end of my cooking to bind the sauce together plus, it will create a shiny look which gives the dish a more appealing look.

Notes

  • I used frozen edamame beans in pods that I thawed first. Then, I removed the beans from the pods. Alternatively, you can use frozen edamame beans that are available at major grocery stores.
  • If King Oyster mushrooms are not available, please substitute with shiitake or Bella mushrooms. 
  • For more of an umami sauce, try my umami vegan stir-fry sauce which is similar to vegan oyster sauce.

    I’m really excited to try this. I’m still a meat eater, but want to start eating more plant based. As I get older I find myself craving veggies and tofu over meat. I prefer Asian food, so I’m so happy I found your blog thanks to Instagram! 🤍

    Just finished making this recipe. I ended up doubling it and used a whole block of tofu (14oz). Great combination of flavors! Thank you. This will now be on our regular repertoire.
