How to Choose Fresh Ingredients
How to choose fresh napa cabbage
- The best napa cabbage will be medium-sized, not too large or too small, weighing about 1.5 – 2kg per head. If it is larger, the cabbage will be bland, not sweet, and fragrant.
- Additionally, you should choose napa cabbages that have a light green color at the tips and gradually turn bright white from the stem to the root.
- Avoid choosing napa cabbages with dark green tips and slightly wrinkled roots. These cabbages are usually older, not sweet and crunchy, and their nutritional value is lower than that of other napa cabbages.
How to choose fresh and delicious chicken leg mushrooms
- The best chicken leg mushrooms are the ones that are still fresh, measuring between 12 – 15cm in length. Because if they are longer, the mushrooms will become hollow, not fresh, and less sweet.
- Moreover, fresh mushrooms usually have a very distinctive aroma like almond scent, with caps that are brown, slightly shiny, and have a thin layer of fluff on top of the cap.
- Avoid buying mushrooms that have an unpleasant odor, are bruised, soft stems, uneven colors, scratched, and have a bad smell.

Prepare the ingredients
For the napa cabbage, remove the stem, separate each branch, and cut into bite-sized pieces about 1.5 finger lengths. Then soak in diluted salt water for about 5 – 10 minutes and rinse 2 – 3 times with water.
To remove the unpleasant smell from the chicken leg mushrooms, simply cut off the base, soak in diluted salt water for about 10 – 15 minutes, take them out, cut into small slices, rinse with water until clean, and let them drain.
For the green onions and coriander, use a knife to cut off the roots and any yellowed leaves (if any), wash with water until clean, and cut the green part of the green onions into pieces about 1.5 finger lengths.

Stir-fry the mixture
Place a pan on the stove, add 2 tablespoons of cooking oil, and heat over medium heat until the oil is shimmering, then add chopped green onions, sautéing until fragrant. Next, add the mushrooms and stir-fry for about 2 minutes.
Then, season the pan with 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of monosodium glutamate, 1 teaspoon of vegetarian seasoning, 1 teaspoon of ground pepper, and 1 teaspoon of sugar.
Stir well to cook the mushrooms and let them absorb the seasonings. Then, add the Napa cabbage and stir-fry for about 4 minutes until both are cooked. Add the chopped green onions, adjust the seasoning to taste, then turn off the stove, transfer to a plate, and garnish with a few sprigs of cilantro before serving.
