Ingredients

  • 1 cup burdock root (fresh is preferred but dried can be used also)
  • 1/2 cup carrots

  • 1 Tbsp saké
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds

4) Put coconut oil into a frying pan and put it on high heat. Add burdock sticks and fry for a couple minutes.

5) Add carrot sticks and fry for one to two minutes, constantly stirring the vegetables.

6) Add remaining ingredients into the pan and stir well.

7) Remove from heat and serve plain or over a bed of noodles or rice.
