Servings:
2I just made something similar to this for dinner out of leftovers I had in my kitchen, so the measurements I give below are estimates for making a full serving (mine was about 0.5). As a warning, I like very spicy foods, so adjust the chili sauce as necessary.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 cup raw cashews, chopped
- 2–3 large celery stalks, chopped
- 1/2 cup mushrooms of your choice, sliced
- 1 tbs teriyaki sauce (or make your own with Liquid Aminos/Nama Shoyu and a bit of sugar. Any ideas for a raw substitute for mirin/rice wine?)
- 2 tsp chili sauce
- 4 tsp grated ginger or 2 tsp ginger powder
Preparation:
- Start by cutting up the broccoli into small, bite-sized pieces and place into a medium-sized bowl.
- Add the celery, mushrooms, and cashews into the bowl. Add spices and sauces.
- Mix together, until all veggies and nuts are covered.
- If you just came home from work and whipped this up, eat it! If you have some time to spare, let the mix sit for at least 20 minutes. The longer it sits, the better the veggies can soak up the flavor. Enjoy!

5. For a raw chili sauce you
For a raw chili sauce you could steep chilis, garlic and whatever other spices in oil of your choice. You know how you see the fancy olive oils with sprigs of rosemary and garlic right in the bottle? Something along those lines, but pack full of chili. I think you'd need to let it set for a time before the oil becomes infused with the chili heat.
6. Wow, gotta try this! I love
Wow, gotta try this! I love broccoli stir-fry (any vegie stir fry actually) so I'm so happy to find a raw alternative. I still have a bit of broccoli raab in the garden, I wonder if it will be too strong tasting? I'm going to find out I think! Thanks for the chili warning!
Raw alternative to mirin: I've got a good one, water kefir. Also known as tibicos or sugar-water kefir. Just make it without any lemon juice or other tart fruits, you can get it to taste quite similar to mirin.
7. DELISH-US! We tried it this
DELISH-US! We tried it this evening and my son (11yrs old) loved it; my husband, didnt, but he's picky and doesnt like to chew alot. I will definitely be making this again!
8. It looks great! I have to
It looks great! I have to try that soon.
Some Japanese people use honey instead of mirin, so I'm going to see if it works.
9. I used Sriracha sauce. From
I used Sriracha sauce. From what I can tell, there's no cooking involved in the process of creation (though the chili peppers are sun-dried). If you want to try your hand at some homemade sauce you can use dried chili peppers and a bit of garlic.
I should have made note about the un-rawness of the teriyaki sauce in my recipe at first—I've since updated that. Basic Teriyaki sauce is soy sauce, sugar, and mirin (rice wine), with ginger and other spices if you'd like. Soy sauce can be replaced with liquid amino or nama shoyu, but I am still looking into replacing the mirin. I'll try the liquid amino and sugar and let you know what it's like.

11. Love this recipe! Made it for
Love this recipe! Made it for dinner last night, and it was delicious! Didn't have any chili sauce, but it was great, even without it. Instead of teriyaki sauce I used some of the new Coconut Aminos I got at the health food store. It's definitely raw. I also added a little bit of macadamia nut oil to the mix, which gave it a sort've 'buttery' touch.
I'd also like to know what kind of chili sauce you used. Thanks again for the great recipe!
