Stir Fry Cauliflower with Mixed vegetables

Today, the sun has started to shine brightly and my laundry

is dry.

 

 

After several days of constant daily rainy cold weather, it is

good to have hot sunshine smiling happily .

 

 

 

It is lunchtime.

 

I had planned to have porridge for lunch with a simple

cauliflower dish.

 

I wanted to have a healthy and nutritious main course dish

for my kids which cauliflower that I had bought a day before

came in handy today.

 

 

In addition, I had a packet of snow peas, a packet of baby

corn, spring onions from my mini vegetable garden and one

carrot left in the fridge.

 

 

These vegetable ingredients would make a wonderful stir

fried vegetable recipe combination packed with sufficient

nutrients.

surface of the cauliflowers.

  • Cut the cauliflowers into florets.

chemical sprays.

  • Cut button mushrooms into slices
  • Cut carrots into florets or slices, any pattern you desire.

 

  • Remove the leaves from the baby corn, cut into

sections or diagonal slices. I would advice to cut thinner so

that it will cook faster.

 

  • Remove the strings of the snow peas.
  • It is hard to chew “rubber” snow peas.
  • Spring onions bring a fragrant and flavor taste to this

vegetable mix.

  • Cut into sections, roughly 2 inch each.

  • Buy one medium head of cauliflower for 2-3 persons.
  • If possible, cook the cauliflower in 2 days after purchase
  • Do not soak cauliflower until you intend to cook
  • Cauliflower should be firm when you touch it.
