Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 ounces Chinese dried black mushrooms
1 tablespoon peanut oil
1 1/4 cup vegetable or chicken stock
2 tablespoons dark soy sauce
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 tablespoon rice wine or dry sherry
2 scallions, sliced

Steps:

  • Soak the mushrooms in warm water for 20 minutes until soft, squeeze the excess liquid from the mushrooms. Discard the stems but leave the mushrooms whole.
  • Heat a wok or skillet and add the peanut oil. Add the mushrooms and stir-fry for a few seconds. Quickly add the stock, soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil and wine. Reduce heat to low.
  • Braise the mushrooms for about seven minutes, stirring constantly, until they have absorbed most of the sauce. Transfer to a serving platter, garnish with scallions and serve.
