Stir-fries, especially Asian stir-fried dishes are one of my favorite things to eat. Strangely, I just realized that I have not covered enough of them on my blog. So from now onwards I will try to cover more of such recipes on my blog.

If you also like Asian stir-fries then don't miss to check my recipe for stir-fried tofu with sprouts and veggies.

Today I am sharing another very easy and tasty Vegan stir-fried mushroom recipe made in Thai style. This recipe gets ready within 20 minutes and tastes awesome.

In this recipe, mushrooms are stir-fried with some very flavorful Thai ingredients like galangal, kaffir lime leaves, and lemongrass. The dish is topped with fried cashews which add a crunch to it.

It's one of those recipes which I make on busy days. Just keep some rice or noodles to boil on one side, and on the other side quickly make this dish. Your nutritious, tasty, home-made meal will be ready within minutes. Even the food ordered from outside will take more time to get delivered.

Variation suggestions

  • Here I have used button mushrooms, you can use any variety you like. Even a combination of different mushrooms tastes amazing in this dish.
  • Instead of cashew nuts, you can also use roasted peanuts.
  • If you don't have kaffir lime leaves, galangal, and lemongrass, use around 1-2 tablespoons of ready-made Thai curry paste.
  • You can also make stir-fried eggplants, stir-fried broccoli, or stir-fried tofu in Thai style following this recipe.

How to serve

This vegan mushroom dish tastes best with some steamed/ fried rice or noodles.

It can also be served as a starter.

    I can imagine how flavorful this stir fried mushrooms must be with galangal, kaffir lime leaves and lemongrass. Sigh!!!! Wish I could just grab the bowl as I'm not going to find galangal and kaffir lime leaves here and neither the paste. Simple dish but really inviting.
