Ingredients
To Prep Ahead
- 2 oz shiitake mushrooms, rehydrated for 2 hours
- 2 bundles bean thread noodles, rehydrated
For The Dish
- 2 Tbsp oil
- 4 green onions, sliced
- 6 lices fresh ginger, peeled and chopped
- 1 c carrots or snow peas or baby corn, sliced
- 1 c bamboo shoots or water chestnuts
- 1 c fresh mushrooms
- 4 c Napa cabbage or regular cabbage, shredded
- 8 small heads baby bok choy or use more cabbage, quartered
- 2 Tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tsp sugar
- 1 c rehydrating water from mushrooms or vegetable stock
- 2 tsp sesame oil (optional)
Instructions
Do Ahead
- Rinse the shiitake mushrooms and place them in a bowl. Cover them with water and let them rehydrate for 2 hours, until they are very soft.
- Once softened, remove the mushrooms from the water and place them on a plate. Reserve the soaking liquid for later.
For the Dish
- Place the bean thread noodles in a bowl and cover them with warm water. Let the noodles stand for 5 minutes, until they have softened. Drain the water and set the noodles aside.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large wok or deep skillet over medium high heat. Add the green onions and ginger. Sauté for 30 seconds.
- Add the carrots to the wok, and sauté for 1 minute.
- Add the soaked shiitake mushrooms, bamboo shoots, and fresh mushrooms. Sauté for 1 minute.
- Finally, add the cabbage and Bok Choy. Sauté for 30 seconds.
- Add the soy sauce and sugar.
- Add the rehydration liquid from the mushroom (or the vegetable stock). Cover the wok or skillet and steam the vegetable mixture over medium heat for 5 min
- Uncover the wok and turn heat to medium high. Taste the vegetables and add salt or more soy sauce, if necessary.
- Add the soaked bean thread noodles and mix them into the vegetables, using them to soak up any of the remaining liquid. (Alternately, mix 1 Tbsp cornstarch with 1 Tbsp water and add this slurry to the wok now. Sauté until the broth begins to thicken.)
- Remove the wok from the heat and drizzle the mixture with sesame oil, if desired.
- Serve immediately with rice, if desired.
