If you're looking for some more veggie goodies, here's my simple recipe for mushroom hors d'oeuvre. I consider it mushroom ukoy, for Filipinos out there.

Ingredients

1 package of Enoki mushroom (cleaned)

3 stalks of green Chinese garlic

1 egg (beaten)

1 tsp corn starch

Olive oil for frying

How to:

Cut mushroom into small pieces. Cut Chinese green garlic into small pieces, as well.

Beat egg. Add corn starch and mix well. Pour into bowl containing mushroom and green garlic.

Mix everything.

Medium heat olive oil in a frying pan.

Scoop several teaspoonfuls of the mushroom-garlic-egg mixture into frying pan. You can line them at the side of the pan, so it would be easy to turn them. Make each scoop into rounded appetizer or ukoy.

Once browned, turn the hors d'oeuvre onto the other side. Then, put into a plate with paper towel or into a strainer to drain excess oil.

Serve in a platter and put either green garlic or lettuce leaf for a pleasing look.

For dip, you can use regular soy sauce (Kikkoman for me) with squeezed lemon, or soy sauce with a little vinegar.

Makes about 30 - 35 pieces.

Bon Apetit!
