Ingredients

Main Ingredients (Serves 4)

  • Butterbur 8-10 pieces (approx. 80g)
  • <b>Vegetable Oil</b> 1 to 1.5 tbsp

Seasonings

  • [A] <b>Miso</b> 4 tbsp (approx. 75g)
  • [A] <b>Mirin (Sweet Rice Wine)</b> 2 tbsp
  • [A] <b>Sugar</b> 1 tsp

Steps

  1. Heat 1 to 1.5 tbsp of Vegetable Oil in a frying pan over low heat.
  2. In a bowl, combine 4 tbsp Miso, 2 tbsp Mirin (Sweet Rice Wine), and 1 tsp Sugar. Mix well to create the miso sauce.
  3. Trim the roots of the butterbur and remove any tough outer parts or damaged leaves.
  4. Slice the butterbur crosswise into 6-7mm thick pieces.
  5. Rotate the chopped butterbur 90 degrees and chop it even finer.
  6. Immediately add the chopped butterbur to the heated frying pan. [Key Tip!] Butterbur turns black quickly after being cut, so stir-fry it without delay.
  7. Increase the heat slightly and stir-fry for about 1-2 minutes until the butterbur is wilted all over.
  8. Once the butterbur is coated with oil and wilted, add all of the prepared miso sauce.
  9. Mix everything together evenly.
  10. Continue to heat for 3-4 minutes, allowing the moisture to evaporate. Reduce heat if oil splatters excessively.
  11. Turn off the heat and transfer the mixture from the frying pan to a storage container or bowl to cool down.
