Préparation

1. 1

   --- Prepare the mushrooms ---

2. 2

   Place the dried Shiitake mushrooms in a bowl and cover them with warm water. Allow them to soak for at least 20 minutes or until they become soft and evenly rehydrated.

3. 3

   Take the rehydrated mushrooms out of the water and cut them into thin slices. Set aside a quarter cup of the mushroom broth for later use.

4. 4

   --- Blanch the broccoli ---

5. 5

   Bring a pot of water to a boil.

6. 6

   Add the whole head of broccoli and let it boil for about a minute. Then, remove the broccoli from the pot and immediately transfer it to an ice bath.

7. 7

   Let it soak for around 5 minutes, then chop it into bite-sized florets.

8. 8

   --- Make the sauce ---

9. 9

   In a separate bowl, combine the quarter cup of mushroom broth with all the remaining ingredients for the stir-fry sauce.

10. 10

    Stir well to ensure everything is thoroughly mixed.

    --- Cook the stir-fry ---

12. 12

    Heat the oil in the wok over medium-high heat.

13. 13

    Add the minced ginger and dried chili flakes, stirring until they release their aroma.

14. 14

    Next, add the rehydrated mushrooms, stirring for 1-2 minutes until they are tender.

15. 15

    Pour in the previously prepared sauce mixture and continue to stir. As it cooks, the sauce will thicken. If you prefer a thinner sauce, you can add a little more mushroom broth at this stage.

    Add the broccoli florets and roasted cashews to the wok. Toss everything together to ensure the ingredients are well coated in the sauce.
