Ingredients

  • 1 block of vegan spam (such as seitan or tofu)
  • 2 cups mixed vegetables (bell peppers, broccoli, carrots, snap peas)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
  • 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
  • Cooked rice or noodles (for serving)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Vegan Spam: Cut the vegan spam into bite-sized cubes or slices.
  2. Heat the Pan: In a large skillet or wok, heat the sesame oil over medium-high heat.
  3. Cook the Spam: Add the vegan spam to the pan and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown on all sides. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  4. Sauté the Vegetables: In the same pan, add the minced garlic and grated ginger, stirring for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the mixed vegetables and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until they are tender but still crisp.
  5. Combine Ingredients: Return the cooked vegan spam to the pan with the vegetables.
  6. Add Sauce: Pour in the soy sauce and mix well. If using cornstarch, dissolve it in a little water and add it now to thicken the sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  7. Serve: Remove from heat and serve the stir-fry over cooked rice or noodles. Garnish with sliced green onions.

This Vegan Spam Stir-Fry is not only quick and easy to make but also bursting with flavor and nutrients. It's a fantastic way to enjoy a comforting dish while sticking to a vegan lifestyle. Enjoy!
