Ingredients
Preparation
-
Preparing the vegetables: Start by cutting all the vegetables. Potatoes and carrots should be cut fairly finely so they cook quickly.
-
Cooking the shallots, potatoes and carrots: In a large skillet or wok, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Add the shallots, potatoes and carrots. Saute them for about 10 minutes, until lightly browned and tender.
-
Add the zucchini, continue to fry for a few minutes.
-
Adding the peppers and tomatoes: Then add the peppers and tomatoes to the pan. Brown them for another 5 minutes. The peppers should remain slightly crunchy.
-
Incorporating the chestnuts and flavorings: Add the cooked chestnuts, garlic and grated ginger to the pan. Mix well so that the flavors are absorbed. Pour the soy sauce over everything and simmer for another 3 to 4 minutes.
-
Finishing: Serve the pan hot, sprinkled with sesame seeds and a few coriander leaves to add a touch of freshness and color.
