The recipe uses the combination of simple ingredients, but it’s the sweet and salty sauce that brings it to the top! It literally takes a couple of minutes to make it, and the secret is in the combination of ordinary ingredients - reduced sodium soy sauce, honey, garlic and some fresh ginger.

It’s a great way to use the vegetables you have available in your fridge. Of course, you can experiment and substitute any of the ingredients with something you already have. Don’t have salmon? Not a problem, you could easily use chicken, mushrooms, shrimp or tofu.
