Sautéed Mushroom and Broccoli Stir-Fry Recipe

1. Prepare the ingredients:
   • Wash and cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets.
   • Clean and slice the mushrooms.
   • Slice the onion and mince the garlic.
2. Blanch the broccoli (optional, but it makes it tender):
   • Bring a pot of salted water to a boil.
   • Add the broccoli florets and cook for about 2-3 minutes, until just tender but still bright green.
   • Drain and immediately transfer to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain again when ready to use.
3. Cook the stir-fry:
   • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
   • Add the onions and sauté for 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.
   • Add the garlic and cook for another 30 seconds, being careful not to burn it.
   • Toss in the sliced mushrooms and stir-fry for 5-6 minutes until they begin to brown and soften.
4. Combine with broccoli:
   • Add the blanched broccoli (or fresh if you skipped blanching) to the skillet and stir everything together.
   • Drizzle with soy sauce and sesame oil, stirring to coat evenly.
   • Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if you like some spice.
5. Finish and serve:
   • Stir everything until well combined and heated through.
   • Garnish with sesame seeds if desired.
   • Serve hot as a side dish or over rice or noodles for a full meal.

Tips:

• You can add other vegetables like bell peppers, carrots, or snap peas to make the dish even more colorful and nutritious.
• For protein, consider adding tofu, chicken, or beef to the stir-fry.
• Adjust the seasoning to your taste with more soy sauce, garlic, or ginger.
