Broccoli and Carrot Satay

FEEDS: 2-4

WHAT YOU’LL NEED:

  • 4-5 carrots, peeled and cut on the bias
  • 2 C. raw broccoli buds, cut into equal size pieces
  • 3-4 T. Satay Sauce

LET'S COOK

Place a pot of water on the stove on a high burner. When it’s a rolling boil, add the raw carrots and cook just until they’re tender, or firm to the bite. Using a slotted spoon, remove the carrots to a strainer in the sink.

Place the pot back on the stove, return to a boil and then add the broccoli. Cook the green vegetable just until it’s done, again, firm to the bite. Drain over the carrots in the strainer in the sink.

Return the vegetables back to the pot they were cooked in and then gently stir in the Satay sauce. Cover and allow to sit for 3-5 minutes and serve.
