In reply to Tim.

So happy to hear you like the recipe! I actually skipped the ginger in the final recipe to simplify things, but I personally love ginger so I put it in everything 🙂
Just updated the recipe and thanks for letting me know!

This recipe really satisfied a craving I had from memories working in China. Thanks Maggie! The only change I made was using black vinegar instead of Shaoxing wine for a touch of sweet-and-sour. One question I had was about the ginger – It’s not listed in the ingredients but the recipe calls for it to be added alongside the green onions.

I tried to make this recipe and it tastes just like what I would find in a local moring market in Northern China. I cook this everytime I feel homesick. Thank you!!

In reply to Nicky. Glad to hear you like this dish! I come across the same issue when stir frying the mushrooms. You can try to use some kitchen paper towels to dry them thoroughly and it will help.

Hey Maggie!! The flavour profile of this dish was really good! However, the shitake mushrooms and black fungus started spitting and jumping out of the pan the second i put it into the hot oil. Do you have any tips on how to prevent this from happening?? Thanks 🙂

Thank you so much for this recipe; I can’t wait to make it. I used to go out to the street early in the morning beside the foreign Student residence in Shijiazhuang to buy it . Eventually, the street vendors disappeared as they were not permitted to set up their little stools and tables on the sidewalk.

So delicious! I made it tonight with silken tofu that was already in the fridge–I will make the real thing next time. The gravy was rich and savory, and with a stir-fry of mustard greens from the farmer’s market, dinner was a snap! Thanks for sharing your beautiful recipes with us.
