A stir-fry brings Asian food to mind straight away but it can belong to any cuisine. Depending on the flavours you wish to achieve and your creativity, mix any vegetables that you have at home and add relevant spices or herbs. After all, stir-frying is just a cooking technique that doesn´t call for specific products. Stir frying is fantastic as you can maintain the crunch while opening the fibre strands, making veggies easier to digest. You can either add your protein to the mix or do it separately (like a steak, for example).
Ingredients:
Assorted vegetables of choice - you can get packaged vegetable mixes in supermarkets
1 heaped table spoon of coconut or olive oil
For an Asian style stir fry: tamari soy sauce or coconut aminos, freshly chopped ginger, chopped garlic, honey
For Mediterranean style stir-fry: salt, pepper, lemon juice, garlic and basil or green or red pesto (can be vegan)
No style, just any veg: salt, pepper, optional herbs of choice
Method:
Heat oil in a wok or large frying pan, add vegetables
Immediately, add a splash of water to create steam.
Every now and then, move the wok or pan to dispearse the heat evenly and prevent fthe veg from burning. Add more water if needed.
When almost ready, add flavourings, toss and cook for an additional minute.
