Using two forks, pull apart the mushrooms into shreds.
Add the mushrooms to a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil and, once boiling, cook for 2 minutes.
Drain the mushrooms and pat dry.
Coat the mushrooms in the cornflour.
Heat the oil in a frying pan on a high heat.
Fry the mushrooms until golden and crispy, around 10 minutes. Do not let them burn.

Once the mushrooms are crispy, add the sauce and cook for a further 2 minutes.
Remove the crispy mushrooms and drain on kitchen towel.
Unfold the bao and fill with mushrooms, cucumber, spring onion and hoisin.
