Note:
? Blanch the vegetables beforehand, so that you do not have to stir fry for long time results to soggy vegetables. The vegetables & mushroom will have bouncy and crunchy texture when you bite on it.
? Prepare all the seasoning in a bowl, slowly pour in the water from blanching the vegetables gradually and keep on stirring because the water is still hot. This will dissolve the tapioca/corn flour evenly. Or, leave the water to cool before use.
