This tasty vegan stir fry is easy to make and has all the protein you’ll need (and more!).

Ingredients:

  • 3 medium carrots
  • 1 white onion
  • 4 cloves of garlic
  • 8 ounces of mushrooms
  • Half a cabbage
  • A handful of cashew nuts
  • Soya protein chunks (Tofu will work as a substitute)
  • Soy sauce
  • Salt
  • 1 tablespoon of cooking oil
  • 2 tablespoons of tahini
  • 1 tablespoon of peanut butter

Instructions:

  1. Chop up the onion and fry for 5 minutes in 1 tbsp of cooking oil.
  2. Next, chop up your mushrooms and fry for 5 minutes. Then add salt.
  3. Cut your carrots into very thin slices, or else use a peeler to get carrot shavings. Add them to your pan. Chop up your cabbage into thin strips and add them at the same time as your carrots.
  4. Chop up your garlic very small and add to the pan. Meanwhile, boil about 4 cups of water and pour over your soya protein chunks in a bowl. Add soy sauce generously and stir. Once they have absorbed the water, fry them in a separate pan. If you are using tofu, you can just chop it into small chunks and fry in oil and a bit of soy sauce.
  5. Once the soya protein chunks/tofu are cooked, add them to the vegetable pan. Stir them in well, and add in your tahini and peanut butter.
  6. You are now ready to serve. Works well with either noodles or rice!
