2 tablespoons of soy sauce
1 tablespoon of sesame oil
1 tbsp sesame seeds (optional)

Preparation

1
Preparing the vegetables: Start by chopping all the vegetables. The potatoes and carrots should be chopped quite thinly so they cook quickly.
2
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. Sauté them for about 10 minutes, until lightly browned and tender.
3
Add the courgettes and continue to sauté for a few minutes.
4
Add the peppers and tomatoes: Next, add the peppers and tomatoes to the pan. Sauté them for another 5 minutes. The peppers should remain slightly crisp.
5
Adding the chestnuts and flavorings: Add the cooked chestnuts, garlic, and grated ginger to the pan. Mix well to allow the flavors to meld. Pour the soy sauce over everything and simmer for another 3 to 4 minutes.
6
Finishing: Serve the stir-fry piping hot, sprinkled with sesame seeds and a few coriander leaves to add a touch of freshness and color.
