Quick Vegetable Stir Fry

This cute little cabbage was just crying out to be stir-fried.....A quick easy supper, just a bit of chopping....yum

For two People:

• Half a small cabbage shredded
• Three to four chopped scallions/spring onions
• One each small red, green and yellow peppers sliced into thin strips
• Two handfuls of sliced mushrooms
• One or two cloves of garlic finely chopped
• A small piece of root ginger, grated or finely chopped
• Nam Pla fish sauce or soy sauce/tamari
• Rapeseed oil for frying
• Sesame or sunflower seeds
• Toasted sesame oil

Method:

• Heat up rapeseed oil in a wok or heavy pan and add the cabbage, scallions and peppers and soften a little.
• Add the ginger and garlic making sure it doesn't burn followed by the mushrooms.
• Add the sauce continue cooking until the vegetables are crunchy but not raw.
• Place on a serving dish and add sesame seeds and toasted sesame oil.

You could add strips of chicken, beef or pork if you like or fresh prawns.

NB. A time saving tip I picked up watching Nigella is when in a desperate snip spring onions with kitchen scissors...much quicker than chopping onions. Which is why I usually have some in the fridge.
