Saucy Vegetable Stir Fry
Recipe video above. Any vegetables are totally scoffable when they're smothered in a tasty Chinese gravy! Use any veg you want - just add them according to the cook time (hard veg in first, leafy veg in last). For a quick hit of protein, toss in some cubes of firm tofu. For a chicken version, use this Chicken Stir Fry. Recipe works with Charlie - see Note 4.

Add Sauce and toss for ⏱️ 1 minute until Sauce thickens and becomes glossy, coating all the vegetables. Don't overcook so they become floppy and limp - they should be just cooked, "crisp tender".

Remove from stove and serve over rice (low carb option: cauliflower rice). Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds if using. A big dollop of chilli sauce wouldn't go astray either!
