Ginger Garlic Green Peas For A Quick Dinner Meal

Vegetables that we love will really be a savior from hunger even though they are prepared in a quick way.

Cooking for a dinner meal is quite tricky. Sometimes we are really tired after activities outside the home. Preparing food afterwards becomes tiring.

Sometimes just looking at the kitchen feels like you have a bad mood. But every day is never the same. We can never buy food every day (if we are not really wealthy people). We still think about saving money instead of spending it on buying dinner meals.

So, preparing a quick and delicious dinner meal is the solution. Taste is very subjective based on one's taste. The important trick, make sure the quick meal is made with your favorite veggies.

That's why it's important for us to stock up on vegetables or other ingredients that we really like. Whatever we like will make it easier for us to accept the meal, even though it's as simple as it is.

So, this time I'm going to share a quick dinner meal made from the veggies that I like, green peas and baby corn! Equipped with Tempeh as a filling protein.

Anyway, this dinner meal for my late dinner. So, I didn't add rice or potato because it was almost bedtime. It's better to avoid carbohydrates this time.

Stay tuned!




The Ingredients

Main Veggies

  • 150 grams of green peas
  • 150 grams of baby corn
  • 100 grams of Tempeh, you can replace it with tofu or other protein ingredients

Seasons

  • 2 tablespoons of chopped garlic and red onion
  • Thumb-sized piece of ginger

Cooking Instructions

Prepare Seasoning

You can just use chopped garlic without red onion. I use red onion because that's according to our style here in Indonesian food. Chopped garlic and red onions. Also, a slice of red chilli. Then, flatten ginger.


Remove Hard Part of Green Peas

Remove the right and left hard green peas. I use scissors to speed things up.


Slice Baby Corn

Do not slice baby corn too thin. But not too thick. I just love to eat baby corn which still creates a crunchy texture.


Cook Tempeh

C14E2A17-73EB-4680-9D11-EDE7829F2698.jpeg
Preheat a pan. Then cook Tempeh for a while without oil. Remove and set aside.


Stir-fry Seasoning

2DC3A5E1-60EF-4EF9-AE02-F0A27B90B69E.jpeg

Preheat cooking oil. Then add flattened ginger, chopped red onion and garlic first. Then, followed by adding slices of red chillies or red bell pepper. Stir-fry until they smell good.


Cook Baby Corn and Green Peas

204E8F40-122E-4DE9-AB6C-4F526F912403.jpeg

Add baby corn and green peas when the seasoning already smells good. Also add a little water to prevent them from burning.

Add salt, also a little sweet sauce. Cook them until they are the texture you want. Don't forget to correct the taste before removing the dishes.


SERVING

Garlic ginger green peas and baby corn taste seasoned just right! They are also suitable to be served with rice or potatoes.

To be honest, I often cook this type of meal even with a variety of vegetables and protein. Most importantly the seasoning is still the same. What do you think?




Thank you for reading my blog and reblog if you want my blog this time worthy of reading by others.

Spices are the makeup of the dish. A great dish with few ingredients. I think spices have an important role in this. Yummy! 🌸

Hello dear friend @anggreklestari good afternoon
What you say is true, cooking for dinner after a long day at work is usually complicated and tiring, and it is not always possible to order food prepared outside the home, in such circumstances you have to be creative and practical to make something exquisite and fast
I loved this recipe and the ingredients you used, the dish looks exquisite
have a wonderful weekend

That's fermented beans. Rich of protein source. In the village, people who can't buy animal protein, they use Tempeh or tofu to replace animal protein.

I thought that's so difficult to find Tempeh out there, except you are making for yourself 😅

Hi @anggreklestari. How delicious and I even felt the aroma while reading you and seeing the moment of cooking the condiments in your photos, I love that combination. Healthy eating is the best gas we can put in our body's tank and more so when we have had a tiring day, a good dinner can be simple, delicious and nutritious in just a few minutes. I am curious about tempeh, because I have already read other recipes where you use it, but I read your answer in one of the comments, it is an interesting preparation and I see that it is very useful to replace animal protein. How nice.

A hug for you 🙏🌼
