Beans and Oysters are a great combination for a stir-fry.
These two ingredients are so versatile, I think they need to be cooked and enjoyed as much as possible.
And since both the main ingredients cook under 30 minutes. you can have this vegetarian side dish on your dinner table in minutes(under 30).
What if I don’t have Hoisin sauce, is there a substitute?
I have two options for you,
If you are not able to find Hoisin sauce in a hurry then make the Oyster mushroom-Bean dish without the sauce, taste it, do you like the taste? then leave it as it is and enjoy it.
But if you taste and find that there is something missing to give the dish much-needed flavor then substitute Hoisin sauce with 1 tablespoon of Soy sauce and 1/2 teaspoon of sugar, mix and use as mentioned in recipe instruction.

Can I substitute Oyster mushroom with Button mushrooms?
The reason I chose Oyster mushroom is when you sauté them, the slightly brown edges and bite really helps to add a different texture to the dish.
I am not sure Button mushroom does it but if you really don’t have a substitute then why not try them out?
Make sure to let me know how it goes with the substitute.
