    Clearly, the technique must be:

    • Put the mushrooms in dry
    • Let the water come out and boil off
    • Set them aside
    • Add oil
    • Fry the onion
    • Add the mushrooms back

      I found setaming literally everything is the hack to getting things to brown quicker and better. Makes caramellized onions way faster too. Just throw a bit of water in when frying and cover until initial stage of cookedness is reached.

        Interesting! I guess that makes sense actually since the steam will make the whole pieces evenly hotter?

            Well, when frying, the hot stuff is at the bottom, right? The pan. When streaming, the hot stuff is all around - the steam - making it 100C evenly all around.

            Gonna have to try that technique. Cheers, friend

      Add a tablespoon or two of water after letting them cook dry for about a minute. They somehow end up less mushy at the end if you throw water in and let that boil all the way off instead of just waiting for the liquid inside to cook off on its own.
