TOFU SHIITAKE SPICY STIR-FRY
This is a simple and quick stir-fry. Peanut oil and shitake mushrooms provide the main flavor in this dish. These amounts are approximate. I added a generous sprinkling of finely ground cayenne at the very end for some serious heat, but those who don't like it hot-hot can skip that. Enjoy!

- Use a well-seasoned wok or skillet: A well-seasoned wok or skillet will help prevent the food from sticking.
- Stir-fry over high heat: High heat will help the vegetables cook quickly and evenly.
- Don't overcook the vegetables: Overcooked vegetables will be mushy and lose their flavor.
