1 to 1 1/2 pounds fresh hen-of-the-woods mushrooms
2 tablespoons peanut oil
2 tablespoons fermented black beans, rinsed and finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
2 small red bell peppers, cut into 1/2-inch strips
1 small onion, cut into 1/2-inch strips
1 cup beef or chicken stock
2 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons cold water or stock

1
Remove the base of the hen-of-the-woods and discard.
2
Rinse the mushrooms under cool, running water.
3
Slice them lengthwise into 1/2-inch strips, then put them into a saucepan.
4
Cover the pan and, without adding any water, braise the mushroom pieces over medium-low heat until they release their water and can be pierced easily with a fork, about five to seven minutes.
5
(Check the pan after two or three minutes and, if it is dry, add one-half cup of water.)
6
Take off the lid, turn the heat up to high and cook until all the water has evaporated.
7
Remove from heat.
8
Pour the oil into a large skillet and turn the heat up to high, then add the black beans, garlic and ginger.
9
Stir-fry for 15 to 30 seconds or until the ingredients are fragrant.
10
Add the mushrooms, peppers and onion and continue to stir-fry for one to two minutes or until the vegetables begin to soften.
11
Add the stock and soy sauce and bring to a boil.
12
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and cold water.
13
Stir this mixture into the skillet, and when the sauce thickens, remove from heat and serve.
