Tips 

  • Swap in or out any vegetables you like, aiming for seasonal produce which is more affordable, nutritious and sustainable. 
  • Add protein using tofu, tempeh, pork, chicken or beef (rump steak is a great option) cut into strips. 
  • Add chilli and or fresh herbs like coriander or Vietnamese mint for extra flavour.  
  • *Food checker status becomes GREEN when honey is omitted. Keep in mind that honey adds both flavour and texture to this dish and we recommend keeping it in the recipe as there are a lot of nutritional benefits from the vegetables within this recipe.
