Stir-fried mushrooms

(my own recipe)

Serves 4 

Ingredients:
  • 100 gr cantarelle mushrooms
  • 100 gr nameko mushrooms
  • 200 gr shitake mushrooms
  • 150 gr bell peppers
  • 1 medium zucchini (100 gr cut)
  • 1 medium onion (100 gr cut)
  • 3 small carrots (50 gr cut)
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh root ginger
  • 2 tbsp Shaoxin rice wine (white wine is also ok)
  • 2 tsp sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sunflower oil
  • 2 lemon grass sticks
Garnish:
  • rice noodles
Step One
 Start by cutting all the vegetables. First slice the mushrooms, then the bell peppers. Cut the onion "julienne", dice the garlic and the ginger , cut the carrots and the zucchini into fine shreds of 5 cm (2 in) long.
Step Two
 Heat a wok over  high heat. Add the sunflower oil and when it is very hot and slightly smoking, add the onion, the garlic, the ginger and 2 tea spoons of salt and stir-fry them for a minute. Add the carrots and the lemon grass and stir-fry them for another 30 seconds. Add 1-2 tbsp of water, cover and cook with high heat for 2 min.
Step Three
 Add the mushrooms, the bell peppers, the zucchini and the rice wine. Stir-fry for 3 minutes (in this time it's best to put the noodles in hot water to soften). Finally add the sesame oil, soy sauce and serve at once.
