Easy Roasted Oyster Mushrooms Recipes

SIMPLY BUTTERY OYSTER MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Clean the fresh oyster mushrooms or pearl mushrooms and dice into 1-inch squares. Leave aside.
• Note: If using dried oyster mushrooms, soak them for an hour in water first. Use about 1/4th the quantity. For example, approx 65 grams of dried oyster mushrooms will turn into 250 gms once it fully absorbs water.
• Chop the garlic cloves fine.
• In a frying pan, heat the garlic with 2 tablespoons butter till you can get good strong whiffs of the garlic.
• Add in the chopped mushrooms and fry for 2 to 3 minutes. (The mushrooms will lose water at this stage.)
• Next, add in the pepper powder, salt and the last tablespoon of butter. Fry for another 5 to 6 minutes. And your butter garlic mushrooms are ready to serve!

EASY ROASTED OYSTER MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Cut off any tough ends of the mushroom stems and discard. Place mushrooms in a large bowl. Add olive oil, salt, and pepper. Stir until evenly combined. Let mushrooms sit to absorb the oil while the oven preheats.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Spread mushrooms out on the prepared baking sheet in one layer.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 12 minutes. Using tongs, flip mushrooms over and continue roasting to desired doneness, about 10 minutes more.

ROASTED OYSTER MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• While the oven preheats, prepare the mushrooms. Separate the bunches into individual mushrooms. Give them a gentle rinse and dry them with a paper towel. Use a knife to cut off and discard any dirty or tough parts on the stem end. If any of the mushrooms are much larger than bite-size, cut or tear them in half along the stem.
• Prepare a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. Spray a light coat of oil onto the foil. Place the mushrooms onto the foil. Spray a light coat of oil onto them and season them with salt and pepper.
• When the oven is heated, place the baking sheet of mushrooms in the oven. Bake until the bottom side of the mushrooms is blistered and golden brown, about 12 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Flip each of the mushrooms and return the sheet to the oven until the other side is golden, 8-10 minutes.
• Serve immediately.
• Preheat air fryer to 360 degrees F (180 degrees C) for 8 minutes.
• Prepare the mushrooms as described above while the air fryer preheats.
• When the air fryer has finished preheating, remove the basket from it. Spray a light coat of oil onto the grate surface of the basket. Place as many mushrooms as will fit in a single layer. Spray a light coat of oil onto the mushrooms and season them with salt and pepper.
• Return the basket to the air fryer and cook at 360 F (180 C) until the mushrooms are nicely browned as shown in the photos, 8-10 minutes, flipping them once halfway through.
• Serve immediately.

CRISPY AIR FRIED OYSTER MUSHROOMS (OR OVEN ROASTED)

Steps:

• Combine the cornstarch with your spices of choice and the salt and mix. At the same time, prepare the vegan buttermilk by combining the milk and lemon juice (it's best to let this sit for 5-10 minutes).
• Place the cornstarch bowl next to the buttermilk bowl, next to the breadcrumb bowl, next to your baking tray or air fryer basket to create a simple "dredging station."
• Prepare and clean the oyster mushrooms (read FAQs for tips) and allow them to dry if needed.
• Cover the mushrooms with the cornstarch mixture before dipping each mushroom into the vegan buttermilk and then the breadcrumbs, making sure to coat it well. Repeat until all the mushrooms are fully coated.
• For this recipe, I've tested air-frying and roasting the oyster mushrooms, so you can do either.Drizzle or spray some oil (spray is best if you have one) over the mushrooms, then arrange them in a single layer within your Air Fryer basket or an oven tray (to roast). It's best to lightly grease the pan/air fryer tray to make sure none stick.
• Air-fryer: cook the mushrooms, untouched, for 12 minutes at 400ºF/200ºC.Oven: roast the mushrooms for 20 minutes at 400ºF/200ºC.Once cooked, you should have golden brown and super crispy oyster mushrooms ready to enjoy!
• Fridge: store any leftover crispy oyster mushrooms in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days, lined with a paper towel. They will soften over time - however, you can re-crisp them up somewhat when reheating.You may also be able to freeze the leftover fried oyster mushrooms for later and reheat with an air fryer/oven - though I haven't tried, so I can't guarantee results.Reheat: while technically you can microwave these, the results will be soft. For that reason, I recommend broiling them
