olive health editor's wellbeing tip

"Most nutritionists agree that we can get all the nutrients we need from a healthy diet – there’s no need to fork out for most supplements. However, we can definitely benefit from a little diet ‘pimping’ – consuming extra vitamins and minerals via judicious food choices. At this time of year, supporting our immune system with essential nutrients is a good idea, and will help it to fulfil its task of fighting off winter bugs. In this recipe, both the zinc (from the peanuts) and the vitamin C (from the broccoli and peppers) are key nutrients for immunity. What’s more, they’re also important for skin health – a bonus for those of us suffering from a dry and dull winter complexion!" Join our free 2025 wellbeing plan here.

Cook's tip

Make extra of the sauce for dipping or for dressing salads throughout the week. You can make the sauce ahead of time but you may have to loosen it with a splash of water.

How to store

The sauce can be stored in the fridge for up to three days in an airtight container. Leftovers can be stored for up to two days in the fridge in an airtight container.

How to serve

Serve this tasty stir-fry with wholegrain rice or quinoa, if you like.
