12 Similar-sized dried black Chinese mushrooms *
1 ts Oyster sauce
1/2 ts Dark soy sauce
1 tb Stock (or water)
1/4 ts Cornstarch
1/4 ts Water
2 Ginger slices
2 Shallots
1/4 ts Salt
1 tb Chicken fat (or oil)
1 tb Stock (or water)
* (or large fresh button-mushrooms)
1. Mix stir-fry seasoning ingredients well.
2. Remove stalks from mushrooms and discard. Soak mushroom heads for 20 to 30 minutes until soft, then steam with steaming seasoning ingredients for 30 minutes. Remove and stir-fry with stir-frying seasoning mixture until there is no liquid left. (If button mushrooms are used, soaking and steaming is not necessary. Instead, simmer mushrooms with 2 slices of ginger and 2 shallots for 1 minute. )
