===Serving suggestions===

Serve hot

===Variations===

This variation uses frozen vegetables as they are more likely to be available in a busy kitchen, however, if you have fresh veg, such as red or [[green bell peppers]], [[carrots]], [[courgettes]] etc. then by all means use those. Far nicer than frozen if you have them.

You can use grated [[ginger]] root or bottled ginger instead of the [[julienned]] ginger. I just think that with matchsticks of ginger, you get a zesty tang when yo bite into the pieces.
