Notes

Such a luscious dish, and vegetarian to boot.
Once can prep this meal is so many ways,  But the cardinal rule is fresh mushrooms, no canned sliced bits and pieces of waterlogged and flavorless once upon a time mushroom.
This can be can be sweet by adding honey, or savory with extra garlic chili paste, or fiery, with additional peppers.. 
As this is a stir fey you can add many things, like fresh snow peas, add just at the end so they get tender crisp, and covered with sauce.
