<RecipeText>Instructions
In a small bowl combine soy sauce, rice wine, and sesame oil.
Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok or 12-inch skillet over high heat until a bead of water vaporizes within 1 to 2 seconds of contact. Swirl in 1 tablespoon of peanut oil, carefully add tofu, reduce heat to medium, then, using a metal spatula, stir-fry 1 minute, or until it begins to brown. Add garlic and stir-fry 10 seconds or until garlic is fragrant.
Swirl in remaining 1 tablespoon peanut oil, add carrots, red and yellow bell peppers, and mushrooms, increase heat to high, and stir-fry 1 minute or until vegetables begin to wilt. Sprinkle on salt, pepper and sugar. Swirl soy sauce mixture into the wok, add water chestnuts, scallions and pickled ginger, and stir-fry 1 to 2 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender. Stir in cilantro sprigs.
