1. Separately soak dried black mushrooms, cloud ear mushrooms and lily buds. 2. Blanch and shell chestnuts. Cut soaked mushrooms in half if large. 3.

Add stock and soy sauce; then cook, uncovered, 10 minutes over medium heat, stirring frequently. Remove ingredients from pan. 6. Heat the second quantity of oil. Add asparagus and bamboo shoots and stir-fry 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in salt; then remove vegetables from pan. 7. Heat remaining oil. Add lily buds; stir-fry 2 minutes. Then stir in remaining soy sauce. 8. Return mushrooms and chestnuts to pan and cook, covered, 5 minutes over medium heat, stirring occasionally. 9. Return asparagus and bamboo shoots.
