Stir-fry Vegetables In Coconut Milk Sauce
Have you ever missed cooking? In fact, even though I only left home for a few days, I missed my kitchen. I missed cooking comfort food for me, and also for my husband.
I miss my kitchen! A few days away from home made me miss my kitchen as much as I missed my bed!
The last few days after my staycation, I stayed at my mother-in-law's house. So, I didn't cook at all, because I didn't go home.
At my mother-in-law's house, I didn't cook. Not because I'm lazy ehehe. But that's what I always do when I'm at my mother-in-law's house. My mother-in-law loves to cook. So, she actually objects if she doesn't cook. I also respect her decision and I don't want to disturb my mother-in-law's kitchen.
Usually, my mother-in-law will ask me for special menus and I will cook in my kitchen. So, we respect each other and our relationship is very good like mother and daughter.
The few days I stayed at my mother-in-law's house also felt like staying in a hotel. Ehehe. My mother-in-law always doesn't want me to do any work. As if my mother-in-law knows, if I stay at her house, it means I really need a break. 😊❤️
Well, back to my cooking topic today. I want to have lunch with something simple. Stir-fried veggies. So, I shopped for vegetables at the market.
I have green beans, mushrooms. Also, tempeh. So, I'm going to make stir-fried vegetables. Also, roasted tempeh using an air fryer.
For extra flavor, I'm also going to add coconut milk to the stir-fried vegetables. And, wait, I'm also adding spicy flavor using green chilies. Also for extra fragrance, I'm using cinnamon stalk with dried bay leaves. Perfect.
THE INGREDIENTS
- 100 grams of tempeh
- 150 grams of mushrooms
- 150 grams of green beans or other types of vegetables
- 1/2 cup of water
Coconut Milk Sauce
- 1 cup of coconut milk
- 2 dried bay leaves
- a small cinnamon stalk
- 20 grams of garlic, finely chopped
- 20 grams of shallots, finely chopped
- optional: enough green chili
- 1/2 tsp of salt
- 1/2 tsp of pepper powder
- 1/2 tsp of sugar
STEP 1
Prepare the tempeh first because I will roast the tempeh. So, while roasting the tempeh I will prepare the other ingredients.
Cut the tempeh into cubes, then toast with a little salt and oil.
Roast the tempeh for 20 minutes per side or until crispy in texture. I love these crispy roasted tempeh.
STEP 2
Prepare the vegetables. Chop the green beans to taste, also the mushrooms. And, then, finely chopped shallots and garlic.
STEP 3
Heat a little oil. Then, add the chopped shallots, chopped garlic, also dried bay leaves and cinnamon stalk. Saute until fragrant, then add salt, sugar, and pepper.
STEP 4
Add the green beans and mushrooms. Keep stirring for a while, then add 1/2 cup water. Cook for 5 minutes or until the vegetables are cooked.
STEP 5
Add 1 cup of ready to drink of coconut milk. Stir well, then bring them to a simmer, and remove from heat.
SERVING
Serve stir-fried vegetables in coconut milk with tempeh, with rice.
Oh, it's so delicious even though it looks simple. Coconut milk sauce plays an important role in enhancing the taste of the dish! Really, you have to try this type of sauce for your side dish. ❤️

Thank you my friend
Maybe you can try with your family in the kicthen if you had coconut milk 😊
I will do my best, because coconut has been prescribed to me as very medicinal, that is why you live so far away from Venezuela where there are many coconut plants and you guide us a very distinguished meal with the fruit of this plantation. Excellent. Best of luck.

I feel very happy, through online, you can enjoy many things from my pictures, as well as my stories and recipes. :)

Yes, it's like a big luck. In fact, in my area, it's very hard to get a good relationship like that :)
Praying is the most important
Oh, that's my family's favorite dish, a simple, but meaningful
That is the sort of relationship I would love with my future mother-in-law 🤩 a mother-daughter bond.
This dish looks so rich and flavorful.
❤️ Thank you dear
@anggreklestari First of all it's nice to know that your mother in law loves you very much and you think of her as your own mother. Relationship should always be what you have. Always maintain such a relationship. Secondly, vegetable stir-fry with coconut milk is really delicious. Love the recipe even though it's simple. Thank you very much.
When we get married, it is important to build a healthy relationship with your mother-in-law :)
You can try cooking this dish too, if you find coconut milk in your area
It looks tasty, healthy and elegant. What a great dish!

You have a great relationship with your MIL, that's nice and sweet. Glad you made it home safe ✨😊
By the way, that tempeh looks like a tofu with something on it, at first I thought it is sweet, haha. Anyways this dish looks delicious, simple but looks tasty and flavorful 🤤🤤✨
I guess it's also because my late mom is very kind to her daughters-in-law, and I get the same for that kindness :)
This dish is a combination of savory, and just a little sweet. Umami taste :)
Oh, I think everyone should be happy with a mother in law like yours, haha. Good for you 😁
Loved these veggies; next time I prepare a stir fry, I'm adding coconut milk. Thank you for the recipe. Those mushrooms look really cute by the way ❤️
Have a lovely day!
Getting good in-laws is a great fortune :)
but my late mother was also very good to my in-laws :)
I think Milk sauce is similar to Ginataan here in the Philippines Ma'am @anggreklestari . ☺A kind of delicious and nutritious food good for the Children.
You shared a wonderful and delicious dish here, I already starving. 😁
of course, with the cultural similarities of our countries, there are many similar foods :)
Every time I read you via my life. So is my mother in law since she doesn't let me do anything and I sit in a hotel just resting and resting unless she asks me for a special dish. Greetings beautiful friend the dish looks special. I love sautéed vegetables
greetings beautiful friend :)
hope you have a beautiful day there too
This is food for the soul. I feel like I get taste it. It's delicious for sure.
❤️Lately, I also see you making recipes with ingredients that are familiar to me. Surely, you can feel the same way :)
This food looks really good like a fancy restaurant, my friend congratulation! Also the tulips are beautiful, those flowers are real?
In our country, we can't grow tulips because we only have dry and rainy seasons.
Those are artificial flowers that used to be my wedding bouquet :)
Guess mama really took very good care of you.i like the fact you guys always respect each other kitchen
Of course, mutual respect is a must, especially among women. We must respect each other's feelings.
Yes very important point
Your dishes are always beautifully prepared and presented. But what's awesome is your relationship with your mother-in-law. It's a blessing to have such a bond where she feels like you are a daughter. I feel like you say, it's out of respect for each other. She doesn't invade your space, and you give her the courtesy to operate in her own space.
I know what it's like to have the opposite, so cherish your relationship with your mother-in-law for as long as you both live. Take care and have a good rest of your week.
