Sugar Snap Peas and Bell Peppers in Soy Sauce Glaze

Simple and healthy, this is one of the vegetable dishes I make up on a regular basis. Add a little protein and rice, and it makes a complete meal for one. But truth be told, sometimes I just make up a giant bowl of this and eat it on its own for dinner.

What you need for one serving:

• 1/2 red bell pepper
• a handful of sugar snap peas
• sesame oil
• 1 clove garlic
• soy sauce
• black chinese vinegar
• mirin
• hot sauce (I used Sriracha)

What you do:

1. Prepare the vegetables by slicing the pepper and removing the strings from the sugar snap peas. Slice the garlic.
2. Heat a frying pan to medium-high heat and add a drizzle of sesame oil. Add the peppers to the pan and fry until they begin to get soft. Add the garlic to the pan, then throw in the snap peas.
3. Add a splash each of soy, vinegar, mirin, and a few drops of hot sauce. Adjust the flavours to taste. Cook this until the sauce begins to thicken up, only a minute or two, so the snap peas still have some crispness to them.
4. Serve immediately – enjoy!
