Instructions
Peanut Sauce
- For best results, make the sauce ahead of time so that all the wonderful flavours can meld. Simply whisk all ingredients together, adding water to thin sauce to desired sauciness. Adjust heat, sweetness, and saltiness to taste, but you probably won't need to! Enjoy licking the spoon!
Veggie Prep.
- Wash and poke a few holes in your medium-sized sweet potatoes. Bake or microwave until tender. Using the microwave really speeds this recipe up.
- Wash and chop broccoli into florets. Steam or microwave until tender. Salt lightly, if desired.
- Split open each potato and fill with hot broccoli. Drizzle the sauce over generously. Have some extra sauce available! Optionally, sprinkle some sesame seeds on top. Enjoy!
