Vegetable Stew

It's one of those recipes where you can put all the ingredients you have prepared and leave it cooked. Well, not literally put all the ingredients in one time, but in order. :P It's very easy and everyone can make it. :)

Ingredients:

• Carrots, chopped
• Broccoli, cut and then boiled for a few minutes
• Cherry tomatoes, cut in half
• Mushrooms, chopped and then boiled for about 5 minutes (basically to get rid of the water used for boiling the mushrooms which usually turns dark afterwards)
• Spring onions, sliced
• 1/4 onion, sliced
• 3 cloves of garlic, pressed then sliced
• 2 tbsp butter
• 1 chicken stock
• 2 tsp fish sauce
• 1/2 tsp pepper
• 1/4 tsp nutmeg
• 1 tsp salt and 1/6 tsp sugar, which means only a little bit of sugar :D

Note: The quantity of all the ingredients above depend on how big the portion you'd like to cook is.

Method:

1. Heat butter in a pan, fry onion and garlic until smells good.
2. Put approximately 1L of water (again, depend on how much you want to make), chicken stock, and fish sauce. Stir well.
3. Put carrots into the pan. Leave it for about 5 minutes.
4. Put pepper, nutmeg, salt, and sugar, stir well.
5. Put mushrooms, broccoli, tomatoes, spring onions. Stir well.
6. Leave it until all the vegetables are cooked.

Happy cooking!
