EASY STIR-FRY

This is a basic recipe for a very quick and easy stir-fry. Perfect for creating a Sunday evening dinner from what’s in the fridge.

Ingredients for the easy stir-fry

• The basic components are soy sauce, maple syrup (or other syrup), lime (including the peel if it is organic) and ginger. I also love how the dried cranberries balance out the acidity and the spices. 
• Onions and garlic can be used as well if you like, and either noodles or leftover rice. The rice should be cooled off before you use it in the recipe, which makes it way more manageable. 
• You can use almost any veggies: carrots, broccoli, pumpkin, cabbage, soy bean sprouts, fennel, bell peppers, celery, peas. Beans and tofu or other meat replacements are great too.  
• You can garnish the food beautifully with nuts or fried onions, chilis or Sriracha sauce. And of course fresh herbs.
