About

This is essentially your classic fried rice, made completely plant-based, with some bold pick-ups from myself. You can use any veg you fancy, but make sure you chop these as small as you possibly can.

Method

Slice up the spring onions. Deseed the red pepper and chop the garlic, ginger and red pepper into tiny pieces. Fry the spring onions and red pepper in a large frying pan with a drizzle of oil for a few minutes on a medium-high heat. Once golden, chuck in the garlic, ginger and Chinese five-spice.
In a lovely little bowl, mix the soy sauce, tahini and hot water
