Ingredients

6 dried chinese mushrooms

1 cup boiling chicken stock

1 bunch baby bok choy, cut into quarters, lengthwise

1 bunch baby choy sum, cut into quarters

200 gram snow peas, trimmed

2 tablespoon oyster sauce

few drops sesame oil

Method

1.Soak mushrooms in boiling stock in a medium heatproof bowl for 15 minutes or until plump and soft. Remove mushrooms from stock, reserve stock. Thinly slice mushroom caps, discard stalks.

2.Meanwhile, steam bok choy, choy sum and snow peas over simmering water for 2-3 minutes or until just tender.(Do not let base of steamer touch water).

3.Arrange vegetables on a plate. Combine oyster sauce, reserved stock, sesame oil and mushrooms. Pour over vegetables. Serve.

For a vegan option, use ketcup manis or mushroom oyster sauce (available from Asian food stores) in place of regular oyster sauce. If you have a tiered bamboo steamer, you can cook all the green vegetables at the same time.
