Oriental Stir-fry Vegetables in Peanut Sauce

This dish is unmistakably Oriental, through and through! A colourful assortment of veggies is stir-fried to give it a delectable crunch that only perfect stir-frying can achieve.




Noodles topped with these crispy veggies, succulent paneer and a tongue-tickling peanut sauce makes a satiating one dish meal within minutes. The sweet and sour peanut sauce used in this recipe is a quick-fix made using peanut butter, tamarind pulp and other ingredients. It is quite convenient and easy to make.


You can stir-fry the veggies, prepare the noodles and the peanut sauce ahead of time. However, assemble the Oriental Stir-Fry Vegetables in Peanut Sauce just before serving. You might have to re-heat the sauce and veggies before doing so.
