Daikon Noodle Stir-fry

Daikon Noodle Stir-fry is a refreshing and low-carb twist on traditional pasta dishes, featuring thinly sliced daikon radish as noodles. Stir-fried with colorful vegetables and a savory sauce, this dish is both satisfying and nutritious.

Ingredients

• Daikon radish - 300 grams
• Bell pepper (red) - 1 medium, sliced
• Carrot - 1 medium, julienned
• Zucchini - 1 medium, julienned
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Ginger - 1 teaspoon, grated
• Soy sauce (low sodium) - 2 tablespoons
• Sesame oil - 1 tablespoon
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Green onions - 2, chopped
• Sesame seeds - 1 tablespoon (for garnish)

Steps

1. Peel the daikon radish and use a spiralizer or vegetable peeler to create thin 'noodles'. Set aside.
2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing for about 1 minute until fragrant.
3. Add sliced bell pepper, julienned carrot, and zucchini to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

5. Remove from heat and sprinkle with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
