Broccoli and cashew nuts on the side...


I found the following recipe in an old magazine. I have only recently tried it myself and it is delicious and easy to make.
Preperation time: 15 minutes
Serves 4-6

INGREDIENTS
1pkt (500g) fresh broccoli, cut into bite size pieces
1/2 Red or Yellow pepper cut into thin strips
1/3 cup butter
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons white vinegar
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1/3 cup chopped salted cashews
salt and black pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS
Steam broccoli in microwave for approximately 5 minutes (must still be crisp) Add the peppers to the broccoli. Melt the butter in a small saucepan and add the mixture of brown sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, and garlic to it. Bring to a boil, then remove from the heat. Mix in the cashews and pour the sauce over the broccoli. Serve immediately.
