1 Prepare the ingredients & make the sauce:

Wash and dry the fresh produce. Roughly chop the Chinese broccoli. Roughly chop the peanuts. Peel and mince the garlic and ginger. Slice the chives into ½-inch pieces. Cut off and discard the stems of the mushrooms; thinly slice the caps. To make the sauce, in a small bowl, combine the Chinese cooking sherry, cornstarch, ¼ cup of water and as much of the soy sauce as you’d like, tasting as you go. (You may have extra soy sauce.)
