If you’ve ever watched a mukbang and wondered what that mouthwatering, glossy mushroom dish is—they’re probably eating spicy enoki mushrooms.

This quick 15-minute recipe delivers a sweet, spicy, garlicky glaze over tender mushrooms with a crispy garlic crunch on top. Yes, it’s vegetarian. Yes, it slaps.

Start by trimming and slicing the enoki mushrooms, then make your magic sauce with gochujang, gochugaru, soy sauce, and a hint of sweetness. Toast garlic in oil until golden, and use that fragrant garlic oil to sear the mushrooms. After a quick flip, pour in the sauce and simmer until thick and sticky.

Once plated, top with toasted garlic, scallions, and a pinch of black sesame seeds.

It’s glossy, spicy, and totally addictive—perfect as a side, snack, or meatless main.
