SHIITAKE AND TUNA STIR-FRY

Steps:

• First, you prepare the mushrooms by taking the stems off. If you want them on, it's fine. I slice the mushrooms.
• In a frying pan, add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil and heat up over medium high heat.
• Add the garlic and stir it around a little.
• Add the drained tuna and stir around.
• Add the mushrooms and stir in with the tuna.
• Add remaining sesame oil. Make sure mushrooms gave a light coating of sesame oil.
• Add the light soy sauce and stir.
• When the tuna looks golden and everything is nice and hot; remove from heat and serve as a side dish for two or single serving.
• I do not measure but cook from feel. So, this is my approximate measurement for each ingredient. Adjust it to your liking. You can also use any kind of tuna that you like.

VEGETABLE STIR-FRY WITH SHIITAKI AND AHI TUNA

Steps:

• Bone and skin the tuna. Slice the tuna into 4-ounce steaks. Pour the cracked pepper on a plate and press each steak on top of the pepper. Brush each with olive oil and place the steaks in the refrigerator until ready to cook.
• In a hot saucepan quickly saute the steaks on each side for about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Don't overcook. Cut each tuna steak into ribbon slices.
• In a pot of rolling boiling water, blanch the carrots and broccoli 30 seconds and then immediately plunge in an ice bath to cool. Drain and set aside.
• In a large saute pan over high heat, add the oil, garlic, ginger, and soy sauce and saute, tossing 2 minutes. Add the chili flakes, bell pepper, mushrooms, spinach, blanched veggies, zucchini and scallions. Cook tossing for 3 minutes. Add a splash more soy sauce, if desired, and cook tossing 1 minute. Off the heat, evenly divide the slices of ahi and arrange artfully 8 ounces of stir-fried veggies per plate. Garnish with a sprig of cilantro, if desired.

VEGETABLE STIR-FRY WITH GLASS NOODLES

Steps:

• Soak the noodles in warm water for 20 minutes or until soft. Drain. Cover the mushrooms with 1 cup warm water and soak for 20 minutes. Reserve the liquid, discard the stems, and slice the caps into strips. Thinly slice carrots, and bok choy. Halve green bean if using. Keep snow peas whole, if using. Heat the wok, and add 2 tablespoons of the oil, and swirl around. When hot, add the garlic ginger, onion and mushrooms. Stir-fry for 1 minute, then add the prepared vegetables. Salt lightly and stir-fry for 4 to 5 minutes or until tender-firm. Remove vegetables and set aside. Heat the third tablespoon oil in the wok, add the noodles, soy sauce, and mushroom water, and simmer for 2 minutes. Return the vegetables to the wok, add the diluted cornstarch, and cook until the vegetables are glazed. Toss with the dark sesame oil and serve.
