size as bell pepper. Save remaining 1/3 for another
dish.

Strain mushroom liquid; combine specified amount with
soy sauce, sugar & salt. Drain bean curd, rinse in
cold water, and slice same size as bell pepper.

Stir-fry: Add oil to very hot wok. When oil begins
to smoke, stir-fry mushrooms, garlic and ginger for 1
minute. Add bell pepper, bamboo shoots, carrots &
pork; stir-fry for 1 minute. Add bean curd & mushroom
liquid; bring to boil. On medium heat, cover wok &
cook for 1-2 minutes, until bell pepper is bright
green & crisp. Push ingredients up side of wok. Restir
thick cornstarch paste, then dribble into liquid until
