Prep and Cook Time: 20 minutes
1/2 medium onion, sliced medium thick
4 medium cloves garlic, pressed
1 Tbsp chicken or vegetable broth broth
1 Tbsp minced fresh ginger
2 cups small broccoli florets, cut into about 1/2 inch pieces
with no stem for quick cooking.
1 lb cod filet cut into 1 inch pieces (use thick fillets)
4 cups finely shredded green cabbage
2 Tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
Salt and white pepper to taste
1 Tbsp sesame seeds
--> Sweet n Sour Sauce
3 Tbsp soy sauce
1/4 cup rice vinegar
1/4 cup mirin rice wine
2 Tbsp chicken or vegetable broth
2 Tbsp honey
Salt and white pepper to taste
1. Slice onion and mince garlic and let sit for 5 minutes to bring out their health-promoting properties.
2. Mix together sauce ingredients, soy sauce, rice vinegar, mirin,
2 Tbsp broth and honey. Simmer in a small saucepan over high heat for about 15 minutes reducing to half the volume. Set aside. This will intensify the flavor.
3. While sauce is reducing prepare rest of ingredients.
4. Heat 1 Tbsp broth in a stainless steel wok or large skillet. Healthy Stir-Fry onion in broth for 1 minute over medium high heat, stirring constantly.
5. Add garlic, ginger, cod and continue to stir-fry for another 2 minutes.
6. Add broccoli and continue to stir-fry for another minute.
7. Add cabbage and continue to stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly.
8. Add sweet n sour sauce, cilantro, salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Healthy Cooking Tips: Mirin Rice Wine is made with fermented rice and found in the Asian section of any supermarket. If you cannot find it, or do not want to use it, simply omit and add an extra Tbsp of honey. When cutting and cooking cod for dishes such as this it is best to buy fillets that are thick cut. Do not use thin pieces because they will fall apart. When making this recipe, you want to prepare all your ingredients before you start cooking. Once you start to stir-fry it goes fast and it is easy to overcook your ingredients if you are still preparing them. It is also important not to rush reducing your sauce. The flavor dilutes some after it is added to the rest of the ingredients, so you want it to have an intense flavor before adding. Make sure you don't cook the cabbage any longer than the final 2-3 minutes, as it will begin to release its water and dilute the flavor of your dish. For best results slice it very thin and barely cook it.
