      Title: SAUTEED ZUCCHINI AND MUSHROOMS IN SPICY SAUCE
 Categories: Chinese, Vegetables
      Yield: 4 servings
 
      3    Slender, firm young zucchini
    1/2 lb Fresh button mushrooms
      1 tb Sichuan vegetable, washed
           -and minced
      2    Cloves garlic, minced
      8 sm Dried chilies
      4 tb Peanut oil
    1/2 c  Chicken stock
      1 ts Thin soy sauce
      1 tb Sherry
      1 tb Brown bean sauce
    1/4 ts Sugar
      1 ts Yellow rice vinegar
           Cornstarch paste to thicken
 
  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.
