Ingredients

    zest and juice of 2 lemons, plus additional juice to make ¼ cup (if required)
    ½ tbsp tapioca starch (not granules)
    ¼ cup low sodium vegetable broth
    1 tsp tamari
    1 (1 g) packet stevia
    generous pinch chili flakes
    1 tsp fresh-grated ginger
    ¼ tsp nanami togarashi*
    1 large clove garlic, minced
    30 green beans
    3 ½ oz broccoli
    2 oz brown rice noodles (I used a wide, "Pad Thai" style), cooked and drained

Tips

*Togarashi, the Japanese word for “chiles,” is a group of condiments always including chiles that bring out the clean, simple flavors of Japanese food. Shichimi togarashi is also called seven spice (shichi is “seven” in Japanese), because seven ingredients are generally used. Nanami togarashi is a close cousin, with a slightly different proportion of ingredients emphasizing citrus zest.

In a small amount of water in a wok or saute pan, cook beans and broccoli until just crisp-tender.
Pour in the lemon sauce and noodles.
Simmer, stirring, for 4–5 minutes until the sauce is thick and coats the noodles and vegetables.
