1 cup water
2 tablespoons Wanjashan Vegetarian Oyster Sauce

1/4 cup basil, chopped
1. Cut skin from pumpkin. Cut a 1/2-inch slice of pumpkin, then cut 1/2-inch slices crosswise to make cubes.
2. In a large wok or saute pan over high heat, add oil; heat until hot. Add in the onion, garlic, ginger, and salt; saute for about 1 minute. Add cubed pumpkin; saute everything for 2 to 3 minutes. Add water, Stir in the water, oyster sauce, soy sauce, and chilies; bring to a boil and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
