Combine all of the rest of the ingredients, and stir fry with blanched broccoli for about 5 minutes or until broccoli is tender and sauce thickens. Serve with brown rice or noodles, use chopsticks, drink sake (again, optional, but recommended!), and ENJOY!

This recipe was way too salty, and I love Salt! Also there was not much of a sauce.

Just wanted to point out that not all dry roasted peanuts are vegan - most have gelatin...so, be aware of that!

we used zucchini,garlic, red pepper & brocolli along with green onion & thought it was really good but just a bit too salty. We served it over rice. Definately something well try again.

I used a bit less soya sauce as people had said it was too salty. Were the people who said that using salted peanuts?? Mine were unsalted and it tasted great - unusual but great :-). I'll definitely be making this again. I also added some red pepper that I had left over and I think you could add other vegetables too if you want to vary it.
