Cuisine: chinese · Time: 25 minutes · Servings: 4

## Ingredients

- 4  dried shiitake mushrooms
- 1 lb Chinese broccoli (Gai Lan)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup chicken stock
- 1 tablespoon light soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 2  garlic cloves (, minced)
- 1 teaspoon minced ginger
- 1/2 lb white mushrooms (, sliced (*footnote 1))
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil

## Steps

1. Soak shiitake mushrooms in warm water until turning tender, 15 minutes or so. Squeeze off excess water. Cut off and discard the stem. Slice the mushroom cap.
2. Soak Chinese broccoli in cold tap water for 2 to 3 minutes, then rinse and drain thoroughly. Use a peeler or a paring knife to remove the tough skin from the stem, at least 2 inches from the bottom. If using a peeler, you might need to remove 2 to 3 hours to completely get rid of the tough skin. (*Footnote 2)
3. Mix all the sauce ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
4. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add 1 teaspoon salt. Add the Chinese broccoli
5. and cook until the stem just turns tender but still crisp, 2 to 3 minutes, depending on the size. Drain thoroughly and set aside in a colander to keep drying.
6. Heat oil in a wok or large skillet over medium high heat until shimmering. Add the garlic and ginger. Stir a few times to release fragrance.
7. Add the shiitake and white mushrooms. Stir and cook until golden, about 2 minutes.
8. Stir the sauce again to fully dissolve the cornstarch. Pour sauce into the skillet. Immediately stir until it thickens. Turn off the heat and stir in the sesame oil. Pour the sauce over the cooked Chinese broccoli. Serve hot as a side.
