Ingredients
  

Gochujang Sauce

  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons gochujang
  • 6 tablespoons mirin or other rice wine
  • 3 to 4 tablespoons sugar to taste
  • 6 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 ½ teaspoon sesame seeds
  • 1 ½ tablespoons sesame oil

Mushrooms

  • 400 g baby king oyster mushrooms (12-16 mushrooms) cut in half lengthways.
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil

Instructions
 

  • Mix all the ingredients for the sauce together in a bowl.
  • Place the mushrooms in a bowl or on a tray and pour about half the sauce over the mushrooms. Reserve the other half of the sauce.
  • Gently mix the mushrooms with your hands to completely coat each mushroom. Be careful not to break the mushroom tops. Marinate the mushrooms for 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the grill to medium high.
  • Shake the excess marinade off the mushrooms as you place them, cut side down on the grill (Do not discard the excess sauce in the pan). Cook the mushrooms for 3 to 4 minutes, until lightly charred. Flip the mushrooms and cook for 2 to 3 minutes more.
  • While the mushrooms cook on the second side, preheat the oil in a large skillet.
  • Once charred on both sides, add the mushrooms to the preheated skillet and pour over the reserved sauce and excess marinade. Cook the mushrooms in the sauce until it starts to thicken and glaze the mushrooms. 3 to 4 minutes.
