Eating safely at a Chinese restaurant is pretty much not an option when you’re allergic to sesame, tree nuts, eggs (or peanuts, of course). But a quick home stir-fry can still be amazing, fresh and delicious without the sesame oil, nuts, peanuts and eggs. (Or meat, for that matter, though this recipe could work veggie or omni). This template for a quick veggie-heavy stir-fry with a slightly sweet & sour sauce can be adapted for what you have on hand… and can also be adjusted to be gluten-free and wheat-free with the right selection of ingredients. Adapted from Grace Young’s “Sweet and Sour Chicken” recipe in her book The Breath of a Wok.
