Heat up the oil, and sauté the onions, garlic and mushrooms for 2 to 3 minutes. Add water, cover and simmer 5 to 7 minutes. Slowly, add the diluted kuzu, stirring constantly until translucent and thick. Reduce the flame to low and add the shoyu. Mix, cover and simmer 2 minutes. Remove from the flame and mix in the chives.
