Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams plant-based minced meat
- 1 unit red bell pepper, sliced
- 150 grams broccoli florets
- 2 units carrots, julienned
- 1 unit yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons vegetable broth
- 2 units green onions, chopped
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with vegetable broth until smooth. Set aside to be used later for thickening the sauce.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the sliced onion, garlic, and ginger, sautéing for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.
Increase the heat to high and add the red bell pepper, broccoli, and carrots. Stir-fry for about 5 minutes or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Move the vegetables to one side of the pan and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the pan.
Add the plant-based minced meat to the pan, stirring occasionally, and cook for about 3-4 minutes until browned and cooked through.
Combine the vegetables with the plant-based minced meat and stir in the soy sauce and sesame oil.
Pour the cornstarch mixture into the pan, stirring quickly until the sauce thickens and coats the stir-fry evenly.
Remove from heat and garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
Serve hot on its own or over a bed of steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
