I have to thank my sister for this recipe. Couple months ago, Bryan and I hosted a small Hong Kong style BBQ party in the yard. My sister suggested to make this mushroom packets for the party. We did it over the grill and they were fantastic! The mushrooms were juicy, earthy, Unami with a kick of black pepper. Everyone loved them and wished there were more.

I can’t start on the grill every other week just for the mushrooms, so I decide to do the packets in the oven. It turned out perfectly and just as tasty. This is a really great side dish! Those mushroom juice is so good with steamed rice. Nom nom nom…

Notes

You can find all these mushrooms in most Asian supermarkets. Whole Foods carry some of them too.
Oyster sauce is a thick and savory sauce that made with little oyster extract. It is commonly use in Cantonese cuisine. It is great with steamed vegetables, noodles and many more. It can be found in Asian isle in supermarkets or Chinese supermarkets. I used Lee Kum Kee Oyster Sauce.
