02Steps
  1. Soak dried bean curd sheets in warm water until soft, then drain and cut into bite-sized pieces. Rehydrate dried shiitake mushrooms in warm water until soft, squeeze out excess water, remove stems, and slice. Reserve mushroom water.
  2. Peel and slice carrots. Wash and cut bok choy into sections. Trim snow peas. Mince garlic and slice ginger.
  3. In a bowl, mash fermented red bean curd with a fork. Add vegetarian oyster sauce, light soy sauce, sugar, white pepper, and 2 tablespoons of the reserved mushroom water (or vegetable broth) to create the sauce mixture.
  4. Heat cooking oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Sauté minced garlic and sliced ginger until fragrant.
  5. Add carrots and shiitake mushrooms to the wok and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes.
  6. Add bean curd sheets and bok choy to the wok, stir-fry briefly.
  7. Pour in the prepared fermented red bean curd sauce mixture and the remaining water or vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer.
  8. Cover and braise for 10-12 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and vegetables to tenderize.
  9. Add snow peas and cook for another 2-3 minutes until tender-crisp.
  10. Stir in cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce to your desired consistency. Serve immediately with steamed rice.
