Vegetarian Stir-Fry

Prep time: 5 mins
Cooking time: 30 mins

This is a simple but tasty stir-fry, whose ingredients can be substituted with whatever takes your fancy. I roasted the broccoli, because I wanted a fresh meal with different textures and tastes. The sauce was simply poured over every individual serving. The method is a little unconventional, but somehow it seemed easier to make. And the family devoured it. Best served over rice.
