![[Baby Food] Zucchini, Black Fungus, and Egg Stir-fry](/upload/20260129/6cfd9d48c12baa.webp)
I rarely post stir-fries before, thinking they're all simple dishes that everyone can make, so there's no need to go over them again. But everyday meals are the most important part of daily life. A simple stir-fry with few steps can shorten my cooking time by another half hour. It's very common—zucchini, wood ear mushroom, and egg stir-fry, which is considered a vegetarian dish in Northeast China.

[Baby Food] Steps for making stir-fried zucchini, wood ear mushrooms, and eggs
Although zucchini isn't at its cheapest right now, I think it's already quite cost-effective compared to other vegetables.
The side dishes are carrots and wood ear mushrooms. When you blanch the soaked wood ear mushrooms, you can also blanch the carrots at the same time.
I never wait until my scrambled eggs are fully cooked before taking them out of the pan. I just wait until they are set before frying them again. This way, the eggs won't get overcooked when I fry them again later.
Sauté chopped scallions in oil to release their aroma. Then add shredded zucchini, carrots, and wood ear mushrooms and stir-fry. This kind of vegetarian dish needs colorful presentation to look appealing.
Once the vegetables in the pan have softened from stir-frying, add the eggs.
For seasoning, you can directly use my version: salt, soy sauce, and a little sugar, then stir-fry evenly.
If you want to mix it with rice, remember to thicken it with cornstarch. The ratio of cornstarch to water should be 1:2.
Reduce the sauce slightly, then you can serve the stir-fried zucchini and eggs. Spread it directly over rice; it's definitely a visually appealing dish for everyday meals.
When cooking in the summer, my goal is to keep it simple and refreshing. The ingredients I used today are mostly fresh and crisp, and they remain tender and juicy after being stir-fried.
Not to compare, but compared to a plate of stir-fried meat, it's definitely more appetizing. Anyone whose child doesn't particularly dislike zucchini can make this; it'll devour rice in no time!
