-------- ------------ --------------------------------

THE VEGETABLES:

5 large dried shiitake or Chinese black mushrooms

2 cups cauliflower florets

2 carrots -- peeled & cut into julienned strips

salt

1 bok choy -- leaves cut into ribbons, stems cut into thin

strips

THE AROMATICS:

1 tablespoon peanut oil

1 tablespoon chopped ginger

1 tablespoon minced garlic

1 cup chopped scallions -- including a few inches of the

greens

1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch stirred into 1/3 cup stock or

water

2 teaspoons soy sauce

2 teaspoons dark sesame oil

1 teaspoon chile oil

1/4 cup chopped cilantro

2 scallions -- including most of the greens, slivered

diagonally

 

Cover the mushrooms with 1/2 cup warm water and let stand for 20 minutes, until

softened. Reserve the water, discard the mushroom stems, and slice the caps.

Parboil the cauliflower and carrots separately in salted water until barely

tender. Drain and rinse in cold water. Assemble the aromatics.

 

Heat the wok. Add the peanut oil and swirl it around the pan. When hot, add

the ginger, garlic, scallions, and mushrooms. Stir-fry for 2 minutes, then add

the cauliflower, carrots, and bok choy stems and leaves. Season with a little

salt, add the reserved mushroom water, and simmer, covered for 3 minutes. Add

the cornstarch mixture and simmer until the liquid is thickened and the

vegetables are coated nicely. Toss with the soy sauce, sesame and chile oils,

and cilantro. Serve garnished with the scallions.
