Great recipe! I did make some changes because I did not have all the ingredients on hand. I used red cooking wine, instead of cooking sherry, a chopped sweet onion instead of a green onion and only white mushrooms. I cut the recipe into a little less than half and added one scrambled egg. Other than that I followed the recipe. Thanks for sharing.

Made this twice, once according to your recipe, once with some substitutions. Overall, this is an excellent base, and the original is excellent only in its simplicity. Adding spicier szechuan seasonings, broccoli, and egg whites gives the dish far more flair and texture, but your original recipe is still excellent for suggesting the correct way to stirfry rice and mushrooms with the right flavors!
