Heat the oil: In a large pan or wok, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Stir-fry the aromatics: Add minced garlic and grated ginger to the pan. Stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Cook the mushrooms: Add the sliced mushrooms to the pan. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until they start to brown and soften.

Chef's Tips
- Mushroom Selection: Use a mix of mushrooms for varied texture and flavor. Shiitake adds umami, while oyster mushrooms bring a delicate bite.
- Miso Varieties: White miso is milder, while red miso offers a deeper flavor. Adjust according to your taste preference.
- High Heat: Ensure your pan is hot enough before adding ingredients to achieve a good sear on the mushrooms.
- Glaze Consistency: If the glaze is too thick, add a splash of water to thin it out.
- Serving Suggestion: Pair with steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
