Stir-fry is the quintessential speedy supper.
Sometimes the last thing we want to do is spend hours in the kitchen after a long day in the studio, so we’ll whip up this delicious peanut butter stir-fry.
Usually we’d reach for tofu, but ideally that would involve marinating overnight. And for this dish we wanted to create something you can knock-together at the last minute.
The veggies really don’t need very long in the pan. Just make sure you keep the wok nice and hot so the veggies cook quickly.
We also add chopped peanuts for that extra crunch and saltiness. Yum!
And don’t forget, if you love this, then you’ll totally love our debut 5-ingredient cookbook So Vegan in 5, which is available to buy right now.
Enjoy!

- 3 garlic cloves
- 4 tbsp peanut butter
- 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 1/2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp sriracha

To serve:

Instructions
- Cook the rice as per the packet instructions.
- To make the peanut sauce, peel and roughly chop the ginger and garlic, then add both to a blender along with the peanut butter, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, sriracha and 150ml (5.2 fl.oz) of water. Blend until smooth.
- Heat a little oil in a wok or frying pan on a medium – high heat. Meanwhile drain and rinse the chickpeas. Then add them to the frying pan and fry for 5 minutes or until they start to turn golden brown.
- Slice the broccoli florets into small bite-sized pieces and add them to the frying pan. Fry for 3 minutes.
- Cut the carrot and yellow pepper into thin sticks, then add both to the frying pan along with the mange tout and peanut sauce from earlier. Fry for 3 minutes, stirring frequently to ensure the veggies cook evenly.
- To serve, divide the cooked rice between two serving dishes. Then spoon half the peanut butter stir fry into each dish. Serve with a wedge of lime, a small handful of coriander leaves and chopped roasted peanuts. Yum!
