Directions
This dish is intended to be a simple statement using seasonal vegetables.
Preparation: Trim zucchini and mushrooms. Slice zucchini in half
lengthwise, then roll-cut or simply slice on bias in thick 2" long
sections. Zucchini should be bite-size but not chunky. Cut mushrooms in
half through the stem. Wash, then finely mince Sichuan vegetable (this is
the secret ingredient!). Rinse chilies; leave whole. Com- bine stock, soy
sauce, sherry, bean sauce, sugar, and vinegar in bowl; reserve.
Stir-frying: Heat oil in very hot wok. Just before oil smokes, add
zucchini, mushrooms, Sichuan vegetable, garlic, and chilies; stir-fry for
about 1 minute, tossing continuously so vegetables do not scorch. Add
liquid ingredients; bring to boil; dribble in cornstarch paste to make a
light sauce (it should not have a gravy look); then combine sauce well with
vegetables. Serve when zucchini is still slightly undercooked.
