Mixed Vegetables with Shrimps and Quail Eggs


This is by no means chopsuey. I suck at making chopsuey even before I was allergic to soy. This dish does not have soy sauce or any soy products. This is an easy, simple dish that I made after my juicer broke. I normally juice broccoli and I didn't want one head to go to waste thus the creation of this dish. 

You need:

shrimps - cleaned, deveined, shelled
broccoli, chopped into bite-size pieces
carrots, sliced
chopped garlic
sliced onions
boiled quail eggs, shelled
a small piece of ginger
Himalayan pink salt and pepper
coconut aminos
fish sauce
coco sugar
olive oil
water

Let's do this!

1. In a pan or work, heat some oil.
2. Saute onions until translucent. Add the garlic and cook till fragrant. Add the ginger. 
3. Stir-fry the carrots then the broccoli. Add the the shrimps and cook until pink/orange. 
4. Add the quail eggs. Season with salt and pepper. Add about half a cup of water.
5. In a bowl, put about a tablespoon of coconut aminos, a tablespoon of fish sauce and half a teaspoon of coco sugar. Mix well. Pour this mixture on the vegetables and stir. 
6. Taste. Adjust seasonings accordingly. 
7. Serve with rice. 

*If you want the sauce to be thick, dilute a teaspoon to a tablespoon of cornstarch in about 1/4 cup water and add the slurry to the sauce. Or, you can just add the cornstarch to the coconut aminos mixture before pouring.
