A vegetarian stir-fry loaded with the meaty flavor of mushrooms and an arsenal of tasty aromatics like shallots, ginger, garlic, and cilantro. If you don’t have chili vinegar, use one tablespoon of unseasoned rice wine vinegar and add a pinch of red pepper flakes. The pleasing crunch of pepitas might seem an odd addition, but so many stir-fries rely on the crunch of legumes like peanuts or cashews, nuts like walnuts or macadamia nuts, and seeds like black or white sesame seeds, so the pumpkin seeds work quite well. Serve this on its own or over cooked brown rice if it fits your plan.
