Summer Buckwheat Stir Fry

 

Ingredients

1/2 cup buckwheat groats

1 cup water

Pinch sea salt

*2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar

1-2 teaspoons fresh grated ginger

2 spring onions sliced

1 garlic clove finely sliced

½ red pepper diced

1 cup sweet corn

1 cup broccoli florets (cut small)

¼ cup parsley finely chopped

¼  cup basil finely chopped

2 tablespoons olive oil

½ teaspoon sea salt

1 tablespoon toasted black sesame seeds

Preparation

Place the buckwheat into a pan. Rinse and drain with cold water a few times. Add the water, apple cider vinegar and a pinch of salt.

Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and cook for 15 minutes. Do not open the lid.

Remove from heat, let stand for 3 minutes and fluff with a fork.

Place a skillet on a low flame and swirl the olive oil to coat. Add the garlic, spring onions and ginger. Sauté for 10 seconds. Add the broccoli and 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt; sauté stirring occasionally. Add the pepper and mix gently. Repeat with the sweet corn and the fresh herbs.

Add a small amount of water to cover the bottom of the skillet.

Place the buckwheat on top. Cover with a lid and heat through for about a minute.

Mix gently and serve garnished with toasted sesame seeds and lemon wedges.
