Coconut oil stir-fried mixed veggies in soy sauce

Stir-fried vegetables are a quick and healthy way to enjoy a medley of colorful and nutritious ingredients. By using coconut oil, you add a subtle hint of tropical flavor, while soy sauce enhances the overall taste with its savory essence. This simple recipe for Coconut Oil Stir-Fried Mixed Veggies in Soy Sauce is perfect for a fast weeknight meal or as a delightful side dish.

Ingredients:

1 tbsp coconut oil
14g
1 package mixed frozen vegetables
280g
1 tbsp soy sauce
18g

Instructions:

1. Prepare Your Ingredients:
- Ensure you have all of your ingredients measured out and ready to go. This will make your cooking process smoother and more efficient.
2. Heat the Pan:
- Place a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Allow it to heat up for about 1-2 minutes.
3. Melt the Coconut Oil:
- Add 1 tablespoon of coconut oil into the hot pan. Let it melt completely, swirling the pan to ensure it coats the entire bottom surface evenly.
4. Add the Mixed Vegetables:
- Once the oil is hot and shimmering, add the entire package of mixed frozen vegetables to the pan. Stir well to coat all the veggies with the coconut oil.
5. Stir-Fry the Vegetables:
- Continue stirring the vegetables frequently to prevent them from sticking to the pan or burning. Cook for about 7-8 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and heated through. You can adjust the cooking time based on your preference for the texture of the veggies—for a crisper result, cook for a shorter time.
6. Add the Soy Sauce:
- Pour 1 tablespoon of soy sauce over the vegetables. Stir well to ensure all the veggies are evenly coated with the soy sauce. Allow the mixture to cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, so the flavors meld together nicely.
7. Check for Doneness:
- Taste a piece of vegetable to check for seasoning and doneness. If needed, you can add a little more soy sauce or cook the vegetables for an extra minute or two.
8. Serve Immediately:
- Once the vegetables are cooked to your liking and evenly coated with the soy sauce, remove the pan from the heat. Serve the stir-fried mixed veggies hot, either as a side dish or a main course over rice or noodles.
9. Garnish (Optional):
- You can garnish your stir-fried mixed vegetables with some sesame seeds, chopped green onions, or a squeeze of fresh lime juice for added flavor and presentation.

Tips:

- Make sure to heat the coconut oil well before adding the vegetables to ensure they cook evenly.

- Use a high-quality soy sauce for the best flavor. You can also opt for low-sodium soy sauce if you're watching your salt intake.

- If you prefer fresh vegetables, feel free to substitute them for the frozen mix. Just make sure to chop them into uniform pieces to ensure even cooking.

- Add a pinch of pepper or a splash of lemon juice at the end for an extra layer of flavor.

- For added protein, consider tossing in some tofu, tempeh, or shrimp.
