Place mushrooms onto heat pan and let the mushrooms brown for 5-10 minutes until they are very dark. With another heat pan place tofu cubes or meat for 10 – 20 minutes until they become golden brown, its important to keep texture crunchy and soft. Once tofu is soft crispy add, chestnuts, chopped mushrooms, cooking sauce.

Stir this all together and let it heat through, then taste it.
