Hi there, Ameera here!
Embark on a kitchen adventure with us as we celebrate our love for Asian dishes! From the delectable flavors to the satisfying textures, there’s something truly magical about the cuisine that keeps us coming back for more.
Our latest creation, inspired by Asian culinary traditions, is a dish that will delight mushroom enthusiasts everywhere. Packed with umami goodness and a symphony of flavors, this Asian-inspired stir fry is guaranteed to tantalize your taste buds and leave you craving for more.
Tips for Success:
- Flavor Profile: Better-than-takeout, this delicious Asian Mushroom Cabbage Stir Fry dish is savory with a hint of sweet. Mushrooms and cabbage shine in this tasty Asian dish.
- Shredded Cabbage: We used our Food Processor with a thin slicing blade to get very thinly sliced cabbage. You can accomplish the same thing with a very sharp knife.
- Tenderness of Cabbage: We used a very thinly sliced/shredded cabbage. It cooks very quickly. If you are using a bag of slaw mix or want thicker sliced cabbage strips, then make sure you do not move on to Step 5 until the cabbage has reached the desired tenderness as the recipe comes together very quickly after Step 4.
- Mushrooms: We used Cremini mushrooms and Baby Bella mushrooms in multiple kitchen tests, both types work well. You can pretty much use your favorite mushrooms in this recipe.
- Sautéing Mushrooms: Make sure the mushrooms reduce before moving to Step 2. Most mushrooms (some more than others) will release a lot of water, that is fine to incorporate into the dish.
- Broccoli Stir Fry Vegetables: You can pretty much use your favorite bag of frozen vegetables or stir-fry veggies in this recipe with great success.
Leftovers and Freezing:
Leftovers will generally keep 5 days in the refrigerator. Store in a covered container.
This dish can be frozen.
Pantry Products:
- Tamari: We used San J Tamari Soy Sauce, Gluten Free, Reduced Sodium. You can substitute the tamari with reduced sodium soy sauce, Braggs Liquid Aminos, or Braggs Coconut Liquid Aminos.
- Broccoli Stir-Fry Vegetables: We used a 14.4 oz. bag of frozen Birds Eye Broccoli Stir-Fry. Feel free to use your favorite fresh or frozen veggies in this dish.
Kitchen Products:
- Large skillet
- Food processor with fine shredding/slicing attachment (optional)

I made this stir fry for dinner and it was delicious. I added zucchini and teriyaki tofu. I served it with quinoa and store bought vegetable egg rolls. So good. Thank you for another delicious and easy recipe.

I loved the look of this dish… so colorful but I wondered if my husband would like it because he likes his mushrooms sautéed in garlic butter. As I was putting it together, I began to have doubts because I didn’t think it would have enough sauce to serve over the brown rice I was planning. However, true to form, y’all gave us an awesome recipe, full of flavor, plenty of sauce, and hubby loved the mushrooms! Thanks bunch! The only thing I changed was I used powdered ginger (1 teaspoon) because that was what I had.

I’ve made this a couple of times and love it. Tonight I didn’t have any stir fry veggies so I used mixed veggies (peas,carrots, corn and green beans) and it was still excellent. It’s all about the sauce! Yay!
