I Have Nothing In My Fridge Stir-Fry
Serves 3-4
Ingredients
Start with a Grain (choose one)
- 250g quinoa, short-grain brown rice, white rice, jasmine rice or pearl barley
Add a vegetable (choose 1-2)
- broccoli, aubergine, cauliflower, mushroom, peppers, or leeks
Add a raw leafy green (choose 1)
- spinach, shredded kale, Swiss chard, little gem, watercress, cabbage
Add flavour
- pickled ginger, roasted garlic, roasted red peppers, sautéed onions
To serve (optional)
- 1 tbsp toasted seeds
- 2 tbsp leftover hummus
Method
Begin by steaming your grain. Bring 325ml of water to a light boil, add your grain and stir. Reduce the heat, cover with a lid and cook for 15–20 minutes or until light, fluffy and chewy.
Meanwhile, sauté your vegetables. Add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil to a frying pan over a medium–high heat. Add your accent flavours and cook for 2 minutes. Next, add your vegetables and stir frequently to coat all the ingredients. Chop your greens, add to the pan and cook until wilted.
Serve in a bowl. If you have an avocado, toasted seeds or even that leftover hummus it will go nicely as an addition. Eat your food and don’t let it go to waste!
