One Pot Chinese Stir Fry Zucchini Rice

Unlike other low carb rice meals this one does not use cauliflower but rather it uses zucchini noodles to produce a rice effect and it works super well. This dish is super low calorie and would make a terrific accompaniment to a protein for a filling meal

Serves 6

Ingredients:

• 4 zucchini spiralised or one pkt of zucchini noodles
• 1 tablespoon oil
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 2 carrots finely diced
• 2 brown onions finely diced
• 2 teaspoons ginger minced
• 1 teaspoon garlic minced
• 2 teaspoons chilli paste, optional
• 1 teaspoon Chinese 5 spice powder
• 1 red capsicum finely diced
• 1 cup greens finely diced
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• Black pepper to taste

Method

1. Peel, trim and spiralise your zucchini. Chop the zucchini noodles until it resembles long grain rice. Let drain on a few sheets of paper towel.
2. In a frying pan or wok, heat the olive oil. Add the onions, carrots, garlic, ginger, chilli (if using), 5 spice powder, capsicum and green beans. Cook until nice and brown and caramelised, approximately 15 minutes
