Equipment

  • Deep frying pan, or wok

Ingredients

  • 1 lb Red Kuri squash or any winter squash of your choice
  • 1 cup zucchini chopped
  • cups mushrooms such as chestnut or button
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • black pepper to taste
  • ¼ cup cashew milk or any other plant based milk of choice
  • 1 large handful fresh spinach
  • rice or noodles cooked, optional, for serving

For the sauce

  • tablespoon Tamari or soy sauce if not GF/liquid aminos
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoon water

Instructions

  • Chop the red Kuri squash in half and scoop out the seeds. Cut it into bite-sized pieces.
  • Add the squash to a large frying pan or wok on a medium-high heat with around ¼ cup water. Cook for around 5 minutes, rotating the pieces occasionally, until they start to soften.
  • Meanwhile, stir together the tamari, maple syrup, 3 tablespoon water and cornstarch in a small mixing bowl.
  • Add the onion, zucchini and mushrooms to the frying pan. Season well with dried coriander and black pepper, cooking and stirring for 5 minutes, until the vegetables start to soften.
  • Lower the heat and pour in the cashew milk together with the sauce, stirring on a low-medium heat for 5-6 minutes until the vegetables are cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
  • Turn off the heat and stir through the fresh spinach. Serve immediately with cooked rice or noodles.
