Categories     one pot, side dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 ounce cloud-ear fungus
1/2 pounds Chinese long beans or green beans
1 pound silk squash or zucchini
2 tablespoons peanut oil
2 tablespoons finely chopped shallots
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped garlic
2 teaspoons finely chopped peeled fresh ginger
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
2 tablespoons rice wine or dry Sherry
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 cup chicken stock

Steps:

  • Soak the cloud-ear fungus in warm water for at least 15 minutes. Rinse them several times in cold running water to remove any sand. Drain thoroughly and set aside.
  • If you are using the Chinese long beans, trim the ends and cut them into 3-inch segments. If you are using green beans, trim the ends and cut them in half.
  • Peel off the tough outer skin of the silk squash and cut the vegetable at a slight diagonal into 2-inch pieces.
  • Heat a wok or large saute pan until it is hot and add the oil. Put in the shallots, garlic, ginger, cloud ears and long beans. Stir-fry for 1 minute, then add the silk squash, oyster sauce, rice wine, soy sauce, salt, sugar and chicken stock. Cook over high heat, uncovered, until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Serve at once.

I used frozen long beans for this recipe and they worked great. I just thawed them before cooking.

I'm not a fan of spicy food, so I omitted the chili peppers from the recipe. The dish was still delicious.
