Method
- Heat wok. Put in sea-cucumber, ginger and spring onion, and stir-fry until almost dry (this takes four to five minutes). Stir in rice wine and toss briefly, then dish out the sea-cucumber and set aside.
- Place mushrooms, water and seasoning in a saucepan. Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes until mushrooms are properly soaked and soft. Drain and squeeze off excess water.
- Keep remaining mushroom stock for use later.
- Heat oil and lightly brown garlic and stir-fry ginger until fragrant. Put in the sea-cucumber and mushrooms, and stir-fry well. Pour in combined gravy ingredients and mushroom stock, and bring to a boil.
- Lower the heat and simmer for 30 to 40 minutes until sea-cucumber is tender and gravy is thick.
- Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with carrots and snow peas. Serve hot with yee mein.
- To make yee mein: Blanch the noodles in a pot of boiling water for two minutes. Remove and plunge noodles into a basin of cold water for a few seconds. Drain in a colander.
- Put noodles back into the hot water for one minute. Give a stir, then drain the noodles in the colander again.
- Mix noodles well with the combined sauce ingredients.
