Miso Delicious Stir Fry Food

MISO DELICIOUS STIR FRY

Steps:

• Get everything chopped and prepped. Do it first. Don't think you can chop and stir fry at the same time because it WON'T WORK.
• Mix together the sauce ingredients, and have them in bowl or mug or something ready to tip into the stir fry.
• Ok- You got it all ready?
• Heat your wok until it smokes.
• Add in all the veggies AND the stir fry base.
• Cook for a minute or so, until there is a slight char to some of the greens.
• Now add the oil in. Stir, and stir, coating all the veggies in a thin film of the oil.
• Cook for another minute or so (if you have some particularly crunchy veggies, you might want to pop a lid on at this stage to give them all a bit of a steam.
• Now add the sauce. Stir and cook for another minute or so.
• Serve over rice or noodles, adding some toasted nuts and seeds for extra crunchy delicious flavour (see my note in the blog on how to do this!)

MISO-HONEY SHRIMP STIR FRY

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the miso, honey, soy sauce and sriracha. Set aside.
• Place a large skillet over high heat with the oil. Add the shrimp to the skillet and stir-fry until the shrimp just begin to turn pink, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic, bell pepper, carrots and snow peas to the pan and continue stir-frying until the vegetables just begin to tenderize, about 1 minute. Add the reserved sauce to the skillet and stir-fry until the shrimp is cooked through and the sauce has thickened, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Adjust the seasoning with soy sauce and sriracha. Serve the stir-fry over the steamed rice garnished with the bean sprouts.

MISO STIR-FRY

Steps:

• FOR THE STIR-FRY:.
• Chop the onion and press the garlic. Let them sit for 5-10 minutes to bring out their health promoting benefits.
• Rinse and soak the hijiki or arame seaweed in 3/4 cup of hot water, and chop up the rest of your veggies.
• After 10 minutes, squeeze the hijiki out and save the liquid.
• Heat 1 tablespoons of the saved seaweed liquid in a large wok or saute pan and add the onions and carrots. Stir fry in the liquid over medium high for 2 minutes. Stir constantly.
• Add the garlic and ginger. Continue to stir constantly. The ginger might stick but don't worry, it will be fine when more liquid is added.
• After 2 minutes add the broccoli, stir fry for 2 more minutes.
• Add the cabbage. Dissolve the miso in 2 tablespoons of the seaweed water. Add the tamari, rice wine vinegar, hijiki or arame, and tofu.
• Continue stir frying for another 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the salt and pepper.
• Remove from the saute pan and put in a nice dish with the gravy if using.
• Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and serve.
• FOR THE GRAVY(IF USING):.
• Mix one tablespoons of arrowroot flour with one cup cold water. Bring the left over liquid that is in the saute pan to a boil and add 1 teaspoons honey . Add the arrowroot flour liquid and using a whisk stir until thickened.
• Pour over the top of the sir-fry before you add the sesame seeds.
• Rice would be great with this dish.
• Bon Appetit!
