  • Incorporate the tamari or soy sauce, maple syrup and cayenne and cook for 1-2 more minutes. Keep stirring. 
  • In a bowl, mix the cornstarch and water, add the mixture into the wok or pan and cook for 1-2 minutes or until the veggies are done to your liking.
  • Serve immediately over rice, noodles or even with tofu or seitan to incorporate good quality protein into your meal. I also added some sesame seeds on top.
  • Keep the leftovers in a sealed container in the fridge for 3-4 days.

  • You can replace the tamari or soy sauce with coconut aminos or salt.
