This was an incredibly easy and quick meal to make. And the mushrooms from Whiteley Farm were full of flavour and very tasty.

We took the recipe from the Carol Vorderman’s Detox For Life book:

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons (30 ml) water
1 garlic clove, crushed
2.5 cm (1 inch) root ginger, peeled and finely grated
4 spring onions, shopped
2 red peppers, sliced
450 g (1 lb) broccoli florets
125 g (4 oz) cashew nuts
1 tablespoon (15 ml) sesame oil

Method:

1. Heat the water in a wok. Add the garlic, ginger and spring onions and stir-fry for 2 minutes.
2. Add the other vegetables to the wok. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes.
3. Add the cashew, drizzle over the sesame oil and heat through.

Served on rice noodles.

Everything was taken from the store and the veg was supplied by Whiteley Farm in Pudsey.

We took the recipe from the Carol Vorderman’s Detox For Life book:

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons (30 ml) water or vegetable stock
2 onions, chopped
450 g (1 lb) cauliflower, broken into florets
1 tablespoon (15 ml) curry powder
8 new potatoes, cut into halves
1 tablespoon (15 ml) tomato puree
60 ml (2 fl oz) water
175 g (6 oz) frozen peas

Method:

1. Heat the water or stock in a large pan and cook the onions for 8 minutes until soft.
2. Add the cauliflower, curry powder and potatoes. Cook for 1 minute.
3. Add the tomato puree, water and peas and cook until the vegetables are tender and the curry has thickened.

This turned out to be a good place to start. The rice was really nice – way better than some boring brown rice – and the curry was great. We’d added some sweet potatoes which turned out to be the best part of it. Instead of frozen peas we added green beans and we also added in some chickpeas.

All the veg was taken from the store and supplied by Whiteley Farm in Pudsey.
