For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes or a clove of minced garlic to the mushrooms while sautéing. Napa cabbage cooks down quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. You want it to retain a slight crispness. Toasting your own sesame seeds enhances their nutty flavor. Simply spread them in a dry skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, until golden brown and fragrant. This dish pairs well with grilled chicken, tofu, or as a vibrant addition to rice bowls.
