Saute vegetables





Here are some vegetables that are very delicious and very, very simple to do...and to mention these veggies are nutrious for us too.

RECIPE 
1-2 tbsp oil ( I used canola oil but feel free to use any oil of your choice)
2 cloves of garlic, peeled and chopped
 (1/2 tsp) or 1slice of ginger, peeled and chopped
1/2 tsp chilli ( optional)
2 sprigs of green onion or a small shallot chopped
~ 20 fresh snow peas and 20 sweet peas chopped lenght wise
1 small diakon sliced and  into sticks ( diakon may be bitter when eaten uncooked, but saute for a few minutes and you would not believe the sweetness of this root).
1 small carrot sliced into sticks --- I pre-cooked the carrot for a few minutes so that all the vegetables have approximatly the same cooking time
11/2- 2 tbsp of stir-fry sauce
dash of pepper


1. Heat oil in a saute pan
2. Add the first five ingredients and saute for 2-3 minutes
3. Then, add the rest of ingredients except the carrots and sauted for 5-7 minutes or to your desire ( I tend to like my veggies with a little snap XD ) 
4. Now, add the carrots and sauted for another 2-3 minutes
P.S. you and also add shrimp if you like since it compliment this dish beautifully

For this dish I did not add salt simply because the stir- fry sauce already have salt but ofcouse you should taste and adjust your salt and peper to your dishes always.
Enjoy!
