 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  3       ea           Morels, dried
  1 1/2   tb           Sunflower oil
    1/2   lb           Yellow onions, thinly sliced
  2       ea           Garlic cloves, chopped
    1/2   lb           Carrots, thickly sliced
  1 1/4   c            Vegetable stock
    1/2   lb           New potatoes, sliced
                       Salt and pepper, to taste
    1/2   lb           Zucchini, sliced
    1/2   lb           Fresh button mushrooms
    1/2   lb           Shelled peas
  1       c            Parsley, chopped
  2       tb           Mint, chopped
  1       tb           Soy sauce (opt'l.)

 Soak the dried mushrooms in hot water until they are
 soft, about 20 to 30 minutes.
 In a large saucepan, frying pan or wok with a cover,
 heat the oil and saute the onions over medium heat
 until they are transparent but still maintain their
 shape, about 3 to 5 minutes.  Add the garlic, carrots,
 and about 1/2 c. stock.  Cover tightly and continue to
 cook until the carrots are tender-crisp, about 10
 minutes. Add potatoes and cook an additional 15
 minutes.  If the ingredients seem too dry, add more
 stock.  Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add
 zucchini, cover again, and cook for another 5 minutes.
 Add the fresh and dried mushrooms and the peas.
 Simmer for another 5 minutes, until all the vegetables
 are lightly cooked.  Stir in the parsley and mint. If
 desired, add soy sauce just before serving.
