this dish is one of my favourites. It's very easy to cook and it's very, very healthy. you only need many veggies, and maybe if you want to add something else, you can try maybe shrimps, chicken breats or meat. I will give you the basic recipe, but it's up to you to add anything you like.
1 zucchini
3 or 4 carrots
1 onion
1/2 leek
1 can of bamboo roots
7 or 8 shiitake mushrooms
1 piece of sliced ginger
100gr of soy bean sprouts
transparent rice noodles
sesame oil soy sauce
lot's of cilantro
if you don't have a WOK, use a simple frying pan.
The WOK, as it has a very small base, you can cook anything with very little fire. So good for you if you have a fire kitchen. the most important thing is that you slice all the vegetables in thin long pieces. this way the vegetables will cook sooner. in the base of the wok add the sesame oil, just enough to cover the base. Once the oil is really hot, add first the onion and the leek. Wait for the onion to become transparent and then add the ginger, the carrots and the zucchini. Cook till the zucchini is nearly cooked (10min aprox) and add the bamboo and the mushrooms. Now you can add a little of soy sauce, and keep cooking for another 10 min. the last thing to add is the soy bean sprouts, as they cook really fast. in a separate pan you will cook the transparent noodles, once they are done (you only need boiling water, salt and a deep pan + 5 min) you can add them to the WOK. Add a little more soy sauce and you will be done! let it stay in the fire for 5 min more, and you can serve. add the chopped cilantro on top. As I said before this recipe can be even better with a little imagination like if you add cashew nuts, prawns... I hope you enjoy it!
