As we have resolved to eat more vegetables, I have developed a fool-proof method for cooking delicious mixed vegetables in my Wok.
You will need a Wok or skillet with a lid and 2 heat-proof spatulas.
First you will stir-fry the vegetables and seasonings in hot oil, then add chicken broth and steam until the vegetables are just cooked.
Serves 2 to 4 people.

Our friend and ex-restauranteuse, Elaine, in San Francisco, gave us this recipe when we emailed her from Hobart, Tasmania, telling her about the abundance of fresh zucchini flowers at the Salamanca Farmers' Market.
Hi Dorothy. Lucky you, Zucc. flowers!
(It was winter in San Francisco at the time.)

For years I have avoided cauliflower as boring and difficult to make delicious. Since I have been cooking it this way, I love it. It turns golden on the edges, and picks up some color from the carrots. I love cooking vegies this way because I can steam them in the flavorful broth until they are just cooked, then rush them to the table, hot and steaming. You must work quickly, using a hot Wok, for best results. I always cook the vegetables while the meat rests after cooking, so the vegetables are hot when taken to the table.

This recipe shows how I use my Wok to make perfect vegetable dishes. The basic concepts for Wok-cooked vegetables are: (1) Fresh vegetables sized to cook evenly, (2) High heat, (3) Oil, (4) Stir-fry technique, (5) Steam with chicken broth. One of the main benefits of this technique is that you can taste the vegetables at any time while they are cooking, and stop the cooking as soon as they are tender, but not yet mushy.

Equipment:
– Large Wok with a lid

Serve warm or cooled, as a side at breakfast, as an appetizer with garnishes or melted cheese on top, with soup, or as a dessert with orange marmalade, honey or molasses. We like them sprinkled with grated Parmesan cheese and/or bits of sautéed Chorizo sausage.
I cook the fritters on a teflon-coated griddle. If you cook them on a griddle or skillet that is not teflon, coat the pan with oil before cooking the fritters. I am using fresh corn, but I am sure that defrosted frozen corn kernels would work well, too. I prefer the sun-dried tomatoes that are marinated in oil. I like to use some of the oil from the sun-dried tomatoes marinade in the fritters.

Ingredients:
Medium-large size, very fresh bunch of Swiss Chard (called Silverbeet in New Zealand and Australia)
4 to 5 large Garlic cloves, sliced into large pieces
1/3 cup Sun-dried Tomatoes, packed in oil, cut into 1/4 inch wide strips
1/4 cup of the flavored oil from the jar of Sun-dried Tomatoes
Salt
Freshly ground Black Pepper
1/3 cup Chicken Broth
Equipment: Large Wok with a lid, 2 spatulas.
Instructions:
Pour the flavored oil into the Wok.
Cut the ribs out of the leaves of Swiss Chard, wash them in a bowl of water, drain, and cut into strips about 2 inches wide. Place into the Wok.
Add the remaining ingredients to the Wok and turn the temperature up to High.
Using 2 spatulas or a spatula and a wooden spoon, toss the ingredients in the Wok until all the leaves are covered with oil, and continue to toss as the Swiss Chard heats, cooks and slowly shrinks.
When the Swiss Chard is about 1/3 its original volume, pour the Chicken Broth into the Wok and cover with a lid. Turn down the heat to medium high.
After about 5 minutes of steaming, open the lid and remove a piece of Chard with a fork. Allow to cool and taste for tenderness.
As soon as the Swiss Chard is tender, remove the Wok from the heat and pour the contents into a heated serving dish. Cover the serving dish with a heated lid until you are seated at the dining table and ready to eat.
Enjoy!
