The first wagamama restaurant opened in London in 1992. Today, it is a brand that offers a fresh take on great Asian fusion cuisine worldwide. The Wagamama cookbooks are all indexed for our members.

Feed Your Soul is filled with photography and a delicious collection of recipes that embrace the ethos of Kaizen, a Japanese philosophy that has been a guiding principle in the wagamama kitchen which means "good change". Recipes are based on the principles of equality, balance and simplicity.

From stocks, curry pastes, pickled ginger to Chicken katsu curry, Chili squid, and Teriyaki lamb, this book promises that the dishes of the global restaurant can be made in our home kitchens.

Special thanks to Kyle Books for providing the following recipe for our members to try now and offering cookbooks in our giveaway below.

Stir-fried king oyster mushrooms
Add this recipe to your bookshelf (click the blue +Bookshelf button link

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 7oz king oyster mushrooms, thickly sliced lengthways
  • 2 tablespoons Gyoza sauce  (online recipe)

to serve

  • 2 teaspoons Amai sauce (online recipe)
  • 1 small red chile, deseeded and finely sliced
  • a few cilantro sprigs, leaves picked and roughly chopped

Oyster mushrooms are very popular in Asian cooking as they’re very 
good at absorbing flavor. We’ve used king oyster mushrooms here because they’re deliciously meaty and easy to handle. They would work very well as part of a plant-based "donburi" rice bowl, together with Thai jasmine rice and fresh crunchy vegetables.

Heat the oil in a non-stick skillet over high heat and, once hot, fry the king oyster mushrooms until browned.

Add 1 tablespoon of the gyoza sauce and cook for 2—3 minutes until the sauce has been absorbed, then turn the mushrooms, add the remaining sauce, and cook until it has been absorbed again.

Serve with a drizzle of amai sauce and garnish with the fresh chile and cilantro.
