For me, comfort food usually involves something warm, spicy and full of carbs. This vegan stir fry recipe definitely ticks those boxes.

And assuming I’m the one doing the cooking, which is nearly always the case, then it needs to be quick and simple. That box is ticked too.

I have been making something similar for a long time now.

Spicy peanut stir fries are nothing new but this version is so simple that it will give you an excuse to make it more often!

I made mine with peppers, mushrooms and Tenderstem broccoli for a variety of flavours, textures and nutrition.
