Stir-fry Mixed Vegetable with Soft Black Fungus

There are actually two types of black fungus, one is the thick black type and another is the thinner and softer type which the Cantonese called it 'Wen-Yu'.

Wen-Yu do not have the same chewiness as the black fungus which is known as 'Muk-Yu'. However, they tasted just as good and it's more suitable for stir-frying or light braise.
