Categories     Main Course

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tbsp peanut butter ((crunchy would be nice))
2 tbsp soy sauce ((light or dark are both great))
2 tbsp sweet chili sauce
¼ cup water
1 tbsp maple syrup
2 tbsp peanut oil ((sunflower oil will do too.))
1 clove garlic ((peeled and diced))
1 piece ginger, fresh ((thumb sized, peeled and grated))
1 onion ((peeled and diced))
2-3 cups vegetables, fresh or frozen ((choose your favourite: broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, etc.))
1 big handful snow peas ((or sugar snap peas))
6-8 baby corns
4.5 oz noodles ((I love glass noodles as they're really quick to cook and taste great!))
1 handful peanuts
1 stick lemongrass

Steps:

  • Get all ingredients ready and in one place. Thaw the frozen veggies (with a microwave or by taking them out of the freezer early enough).
  • Chopping time: chop the snow peas, baby corn and onion. Dice the garlic and ginger.
  • For the sauce: grab a large bowl and chuck in the peanut butter, soy sauce, sweet chilli sauce, water, syrup. Mix well with a spoon 'til it's a nice and creamy sauce. Optionally, throw in the lemon grass.
  • Cook the noodles so you have them at hand when the stir-fry comes together. When ready, drain and rinse under cold water (they'll stick together less).
  • In a wok or large pan heat the oil until it starts smoking.
  • Add the garlic, ginger, onion, sugar snaps and baby corn
  • Around 40 seconds later add the thawed veggies. (If you just use fresh veg, throw in everything at once).
  • Stir it well for about 4-5 minutes.
  • Reduce the heat a little and add the sauce and noodles. It'll quickly begin to boil.
  • Make sure it's all nice and creamy. Add a little more water, if not!
  • Add some peanuts
  • Let it simmer for another 3-5 minutes.
  • Fish out the lemon grass before serving (it's only for the flavour, not for eating!!)
  • Done!

SARAH'S EASY VEGETABLE STIR-FRY



Sarah's Easy Vegetable Stir-Fry image

This is a Chinese-style stir-fry with a brown sauce. You can use any combination of your favorite vegetables. The sauce can be made ahead of time, so you can easily just stir-fry the veggies and add in the sauce. Add chicken, beef, or (my favorite) fried tofu. This recipe is easily adaptable to use your favorite vegetables - just chop enough to completely fill your large skillet. Garnish with chow mein noodles.
