Another Maple Syrup & Veggies Recipe

This is just something that I kind of threw together. All the ingredients are regional (either local or from Ontario). I thought it was pretty tasty, but others might find it a tad weird!

Stir Fried Veggies w/ Maple Syrup & Cilantro

8 large white mushrooms (I wish I could find where the local morels are!)
1/8 red cabbage, chopped
1 large sweet potato, cubed
3 medium carrots, chopped
1 leek, chopped
6 asparagus, chopped
1 teaspoon of better, room temperature
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 handful of cilantro, roughly chopped (mine was frozen from last summer, it is so much better fresh!)

Melt butter in a pot, and throw in leek and sweet potato. Add a bit of water and let simmer for about 4 minutes on medium to low heat. Add carrot and more water if necessary, and let simmer for about 2 minutes. Add red cabbage, simmer for 1 minute. Finally, add mushrooms, asparagus and cilantro and simmer for about 3 minutes.

Turn off element, but keep pot on it and add maple syrup and stir well.

You could eat this with rice or maybe even amaranth seeds!

Sláinte!
