Carrot Burdock Saute
Burdock root is a satisfying, nutty flavored root vegetable that the Japanese use. It can be found in teas to heal sore throats and colds and contains inulin, a dietary fiber that aids in digestion. It has been found to regulate blood sugar, have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial qualities. It may help skin conditions such as wrinkles, psoriasis, eczema and acne.
Ingredients:
2 tsp ghee or avocado oil (high heat tolerant)
2 cups carrots cut into matchsticks
2 cups burdock cut into matchsticks
3 T Tamari
1 T rice vinegar
1 T sweetener (I use monkfruit)
Gomasio to taste (ground roasted sesame seeds and sea salt)
Here’s How:
Heat a large skillet, and once very hot, add fat and burdock root, stir and cover for 3-5 minutes.
Add carrots and stir. Cover for another 3-5 minutes.
Mix remaining ingredients together and drizzle over saute. Cook uncovered until all liquid is absorbed and sprinkle with gomasio (ground sesame seeds and salt) for garnish.
