Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp avocado or sesame oil
  • 4 cups cooked wide rice noodles
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 cups small cauliflower florets
  • 1 cup chopped carrots, cut in half moons or circles about 1-2 large carrots
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground pepper
  • 2 cups sliced mushrooms
  • 1 cup chopped cabbage
  • 1 cup chopped kale
  • optional garnish: dehydrated garlic
For the sauce:
  • 1/3 cup tamari
  • 2 tbsp coconut palm sugar or brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp sambal oelek
  • 2 tbsp rice wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp corn starch
  • 1 tsp fish sauce

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Whisk the sauce ingredients together and set aside: 1/3 cup tamari, 2 tbsp coconut palm sugar, 1 tbsp sambal oelek, 2 tbsp rice wine vinegar, 1 tbsp cornstarch, 1 tsp fish sauce.
  2. Prep the noodles by placing them in a large bowl or pot, pouring over boiling water and soaking according to package instructions. The noodles should be tender, not mushy when done. Drain and set aside in a bowl. Mix with a drizzle of sesame oil so they don’t stick together.
  3. To a large frying pan add your choice of oil and heat to medium-high. Once hot, turn to medium heat and add minced garlic and cook 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
  4. Add in cauliflower florets and carrots, season with 1 tsp salt and ground pepper and saute until slightly tender but still a bit of crunch, 4-6 minutes. Add in the mushrooms, saute for 5 more minuntes or until tender. Finally add in the cabbage and kale to just wilt, about 1-2 minutes.
  5. Add in the cooked noodles and stir fry sauce. Saute for a couple minutes, tossing gently (tongs work great), until noodles are warmed through and everything is coated with sauce. Optional: garnish with dehydrated garlic.

Notes

  • Top this stir fry with your favourite protein!
  • Vegetables not softening fast enough when cooking? Try adding a few tablespoons of water and putting a lid on for a few minutes to help the veggies steam before going to the next step of the recipe.
  • Leftovers keep in the fridge for 3-4 days. Best reheated on low in a frying pan.
