East Meet West Mixed Vegetables

Mixed vegetables or chap-chai is one of my favourite... especially the east meet west type. Why east meet west? I used dried mushrooms, which is considered very Chinese so I named it East and West because I used broccoli as it's more of a western type of vegetable. (the dried mushrooms were hidden below, hence can't see in the photo)
