CUT THE BEAN CURD into 2-by-1/2-inch squares. Heat 3

batches. Drain each cooked batch on paper towels.
Drain the oil and wipe the wok clean. Reheat the wok
over moderate heat and add 1 tablespoon of oil. Then
add the garlic and salt and stir-fry for 30 seconds.
Add the mushrooms and the rest of the sauce

until the mushrooms are cooked. Return the bean curd
to the wok and once it is heated through, it is ready
to be served.
