Ingredients

Instructions

1. 1

   Begin by preparing the vegetables. Wash the lettuce thoroughly under cold water and dry it using a salad spinner or kitchen towel. Chop into bite-sized pieces.

2. 2

   Slice the white mushrooms thinly and chop the onion. Mince the garlic cloves.

3. 3

   Heat a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add a splash of vegetable oil (not listed in ingredients) and let it heat until shimmering.

4. 4

   Once hot, add the minced garlic and onions. Stir-fry for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant and the onions start to soften.

5. 5

   Add the sliced mushrooms to the pan and stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes until mushrooms are tender and slightly browned.

6. 6

   Toss in the chopped lettuce and stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes until the lettuce is wilted but still retains some crunch.

7. 7

   Pour in the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, and sprinkle with ground black pepper. Stir well to combine all ingredients and cook for another minute.

8. 8

   Remove the pan from heat and serve the stir-fried lettuce and mushrooms immediately. Enjoy as a side dish or light main.
