Ingredients

1 cup snow peas, tips removed

2 medium carrots, diced
2 chocho (chayote) or butternut squash, diced
1 large bell pepper (yellow or red), diced
1 stalk celery, diced
1 cup shiitake, oyster, or button mushrooms, sliced
2 tablespoons sesame oil
6 cloves garlic, chopped
1 medium onion, diced
1 tablespoon grated ginger, or 1 teaspoon ground ginger
2 tablespoons green curry paste
1½ tablespoons nutritional yeast
2 cups Homemade Coconut Milk (see page 159 of my Live Fit Kitchen Cookbook) or store-bought unsweetened coconut milk
1 teaspoon fish sauce
1 cup Sprouted Mung Beans (see page167 of my Live Fit Kitchen Cookbook, optional)

Procedure

1. Fill a large pot with about 1 inch of water. Bring to a boil and place a steamer basket in the pot. Place the snow peas, broccoli, carrots, chocho, peppers, celery, and mushrooms in the basket, cover, and turn the heat to medium-low. Steam the vegetables until they’re crisp-tender, about 3 to 5 minutes.
2. Heat a large sauté pan for 2 to 3 minutes over medium heat. Add the sesame oil and swirl to evenly coat the pan. Add the garlic, onion, and ginger to the pan and sauté for 1 minute.
3. Add the green curry paste, nutritional yeast, coconut milk, and fish sauce and cook for 2 minutes.
4. Add the steamed vegetables and sprouted mung beans and cook for another 5 minutes, until the veggies are tender.
5. Season to taste with salt and pepper, top with the cashew nuts, and enjoy!
