Winter fills the markets with colourful fresh vegetables, and they can be turned into healthy, tasty food in very little time. Know the right method and a simple sautéed vegetable dish takes just a few minutes. There is nothing difficult about it: lightly boil the vegetables, then fry them briefly in a little butter. Here is the recipe.

First wash your chosen vegetables well and cut them into pieces. Add a little salt to water in a pan and boil the vegetables for a short while; there is no need to cook them until completely soft. Lift them out and immediately plunge them into cold water, which keeps their colour and texture. Then drain and set aside.

Melt butter in a pan or karai. When it is hot, add chopped onion and garlic and fry until fragrant. Tip in the boiled vegetables and stir well. Add chopped mushroom and fry a little longer. Finally, sprinkle over ground black pepper and salt to taste.

Take the pan off the heat and serve the nutritious sautéed vegetables hot.
