Step by step recipe

1	Prepare 750 g mushrooms and cut them in 4 in the height.
2	In a large skillet over high heat, add 4 tablespoons olive oil, and when it's very hot, add the mushrooms. Do not add salt—this is important—and sauté the mushrooms until they are lightly browned, stirring occasionally.
3	Add 4 tablespoons soy sauce all at once...
4	...and coat the mushrooms by stirring frequently until the soy sauce has completely evaporated. This will leave the mushrooms richly coloured and shiny: they are now glazed or "lacquered".
5	Turn off the heat, add the chopped parsley and squeeze the juice of ½ lemon over the mushrooms. Stir one last time.
6	Serve on a bed of plain white rice or pilau.

Remarks

For a more distinctive flavour, add the zest of the lemon at the same time as the juice, or even 2 tablespoons of rice vinegar.
Similarly, you can use lime instead of lemon and replace the parsley with lemon balm.
