Makes 8 Snackies | Prep 30 minutes
Ingredients
To make this flavourful dish, you will need the following ingredients:
Teriyaki Sauce:
- 125 ml (½ cup) coconut aminos
- 3 tbsp maple syrup
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp ginger, minced
- 1 tsp thyme
- 2 tbsp water
- 2 tbsp brown rice flour
Vegetable Bowl:
- 2 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 medium head broccoli, cut into florets
- 1 large carrot, cut into batons
- 120 g (½ cup) green beans, ends trimmed
- 1 red capsicum, roughly chopped
- 2 tbsp sesame seeds, toasted
Method
Start by preparing the teriyaki sauce. In a large mixing bowl, combine the coconut aminos, maple syrup, minced garlic, minced ginger, thyme, and water. Whisk until well combined. Add the brown rice flour and continue to whisk until the sauce is smooth. Set aside.
Next, prepare the vegetable bowl. Heat the sesame oil in a large frying pan or wok over high heat. Add the chopped vegetables and stir-fry for a few minutes until they are cooked but still crisp.
Pour half of the teriyaki sauce over the vegetables and heat through for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly. This will allow the flavours to meld together and coat the vegetables evenly.
Serve the teriyaki vegetables immediately in your favourite We Might Be Tiny Snackie, along with some cooked rice. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds and a drizzle of extra teriyaki sauce for an added burst of flavour.
This soy-free teriyaki veggie bowl is not only delicious but also nutritious and easy to make. It's the perfect meal option for anyone looking for a flavourful and satisfying dish that's free from soy and full of wholesome ingredients. Try it today and see for yourself!
Ways to encourage your tiny chefs
Getting kids involved in making the soy-free teriyaki veggie bowl can be a fun and educational experience! Here are some ideas to get them engaged:
- Chopping Vegetables: Depending on their age and skill level, kids can help chop vegetables like broccoli, carrots, and capsicum. Supervise them closely and provide age-appropriate knives.
- Making the Teriyaki Sauce: Kids can help mix together the ingredients for the teriyaki sauce, such as coconut aminos, maple syrup, garlic, and ginger. This can help them practise measuring and mixing skills.
- Mixing the Veggie Bowl: Show the kids how to mix the chopped vegetables with the teriyaki sauce before cooking. This can be a fun and messy activity for them.
- Cooking the Veggie Bowl: Depending on their age and skill level, kids can help cook the veggie bowl in the frying pan. Supervise them closely to ensure safety.
- Garnishing and Serving: Let your tiny chefs help garnish the veggie bowl with toasted sesame seeds before serving. They can also help serve the dish into individual bowls.
- Cleaning Up: Involve the kids in washing dishes and tidying up the kitchen after cooking. This teaches them the importance of cleaning up after themselves.
Overall, getting kids involved in the kitchen can help them develop important life skills, learn about healthy eating, and create lasting memories with you.
