When I am craving something light and fortifying, a simple stir-fry is typically the answer. Stir-fry's are the ideal way to use up some of those leftover vegetables in the fridge as well as get a meal on the table in a short amount of time. I like to keep my stir-fry's simple, uncomplicated, and adaptable to what I have on hand. Ginger and garlic always serve as the base and I build each layer with whatever vegetables happen to lurking in my produce drawer. To add flavor, I lean on sesame oil, tamari, and umeboshi vinegar, to create the perfect balance of salty, savory, and acidic.
