Three Cup Mushrooms - San bei ku 三杯菇


Three Cup Mushrooms (San Bei Ku, 三杯菇) is a popular Taiwanese dish made by cooking mushrooms with equal parts of sesame oil, soy sauce, and cooking wine. The dish is enhanced with garlic, ginger, and fresh Thai basil, giving it a fragrant, savory, and slightly sweet flavor. It's a plant-based variation of the traditional three-cup chicken.
