    Step 6.

    Serve oyster mushrooms fried with onions hot. They will be a great addition to pasta, boiled potatoes and vegetables for dinner. Be sure to sprinkle the dish with fresh herbs (dill, parsley, green onions, to choose from) when serving mushrooms. Cooled fried oyster mushrooms can be used for salads and pie fillings.

Oyster mushrooms belong to woody mushrooms - they grow on trees, mainly they can be found on birch, aspen, willow and pine trees. Many mushroom pickers bypass them, considering there is no benefit from such mushrooms. But nevertheless, mushrooms include a number of useful substances - vitamins and trace elements (vitamins A, D, B, PP, etc.).
And due to the fact that the harvest of such mushrooms can be harvested all year round (they are cultivated on sawdust, paper, shavings), they become very pleasant for consumers. Well, the undoubted advantage of such mushrooms is that they are prepared quickly and simply - this recipe is proof of that.

So that the mucous membrane of the eyes is not irritated when slicing onions, rinse the onion and knife with cold water. The cutting board will not absorb the unpleasant onion smell if you rub it with a piece of lemon before slicing.

Instead of fresh, you can take frozen or dried mushrooms (dried ones will need 5-6 times less than fresh ones). Frozen mushrooms can be defrosted in any convenient way (for example, in the microwave in the appropriate mode - see the instructions for your technique) and drain the liquid. Or, if the amount of liquid in the recipe is not critical, use without defrosting. Dried mushrooms should be washed well, since they are not washed before drying, and then soaked in cold water for at least 2-3 hours.

Use oil with a high smoking temperature for frying! Any oils are useful only until a certain temperature is reached - the point of smoking, at which the oil begins to burn and toxic substances, including carcinogens, are formed in it.
Unrefined oils, with rare exceptions, have a low smoking point. There are a lot of unfiltered organic particles in them, which quickly begin to burn.
Refined oils are more resistant to heating, and their smoking point is higher. If you are going to cook food in the oven, on a frying pan or grill, make sure that you use oil with a high smoking point. The most common of the oils with a high smoking point: refined varieties of sunflower, olive and grape.
