Ginger Garlic Green Peas For A Quick Dinner Meal
Vegetables that we love will really be a savior from hunger even though they are prepared in a quick way.
Cooking for a dinner meal is quite tricky. Sometimes we are really tired after activities outside the home. Preparing food afterwards becomes tiring.
Sometimes just looking at the kitchen feels like you have a bad mood. But every day is never the same. We can never buy food every day (if we are not really wealthy people). We still think about saving money instead of spending it on buying dinner meals.
So, preparing a quick and delicious dinner meal is the solution. Taste is very subjective based on one's taste. The important trick, make sure the quick meal is made with your favorite veggies.
That's why it's important for us to stock up on vegetables or other ingredients that we really like. Whatever we like will make it easier for us to accept the meal, even though it's as simple as it is.
So, this time I'm going to share a quick dinner meal made from the veggies that I like, green peas and baby corn! Equipped with Tempeh as a filling protein.
Anyway, this dinner meal for my late dinner. So, I didn't add rice or potato because it was almost bedtime. It's better to avoid carbohydrates this time.
Stay tuned!
The Ingredients
Main Veggies
- 150 grams of green peas
- 150 grams of baby corn
- 100 grams of Tempeh, you can replace it with tofu or other protein ingredients
Seasons
- 2 tablespoons of chopped garlic and red onion
- Thumb-sized piece of ginger
- Enough red chili according to your taste, or you can replace it with red bell pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- less water
- (optional) 1 tablespoon of sweet soy sauce
Cooking Instructions
Prepare Seasoning
You can just use chopped garlic without red onion. I use red onion because that's according to our style here in Indonesian food. Chopped garlic and red onions. Also, a slice of red chilli. Then, flatten ginger.
Remove Hard Part of Green Peas
Remove the right and left hard green peas. I use scissors to speed things up.
Slice Baby Corn
Do not slice baby corn too thin. But not too thick. I just love to eat baby corn which still creates a crunchy texture.
Cook Tempeh
Preheat a pan. Then cook Tempeh for a while without oil. Remove and set aside.
Stir-fry Seasoning
Preheat cooking oil. Then add flattened ginger, chopped red onion and garlic first. Then, followed by adding slices of red chillies or red bell pepper. Stir-fry until they smell good.
Cook Baby Corn and Green Peas
Add baby corn and green peas when the seasoning already smells good. Also add a little water to prevent them from burning.
Add salt, also a little sweet sauce. Cook them until they are the texture you want. Don't forget to correct the taste before removing the dishes.
SERVING
Garlic ginger green peas and baby corn taste seasoned just right! They are also suitable to be served with rice or potatoes.
To be honest, I often cook this type of meal even with a variety of vegetables and protein. Most importantly the seasoning is still the same. What do you think?

Spices are the makeup of the dish. A great dish with few ingredients. I think spices have an important role in this. Yummy! 🌸
Absolutely. That's why recommended to planting some herbs and spices in our garden 🙂

Despite I would have loved to try this out, all these ingredients are not available in my locality.
So sorry that's not available in your area. Did you have green beans?
Yes, green beans is available
So great! Green beans are delicious just by stir-frying with garlic 😊

Hello dear friend @anggreklestari good afternoon
What you say is true, cooking for dinner after a long day at work is usually complicated and tiring, and it is not always possible to order food prepared outside the home, in such circumstances you have to be creative and practical to make something exquisite and fast
I loved this recipe and the ingredients you used, the dish looks exquisite
have a wonderful weekend
Hello @jlufer
Thank you so much for your comment. As a chef for family, indeed we have to think wisely to cook fast for daily meals.
Have a great weekend
If a person wants to live a healthy life, he has to eat vegetables because straw gives strength to a person and the health of a person gets better day by day.
In my family, we always put veggies for daily meals. 🙂
Good.
Thanks 🙂
Most of the time I see you sharing dishes, I always feel like dipping my hands into my phone to drag out the food.. I hope I would eat one of these one day😀😀
😅 you have a good imagination 😛
😀😀😀yes of course
Your dish looks beautiful and I imagine it tastes just as good as it looks. ;-)
Here we often make it for daily meal 🙂
Tu plato se ve muy lindo, debe saber muy delicioso. saludos
I truly want to look for that tempeh .. I dunno where to find . Been so curious of the taste since I saw it in your life blog before. This looks like a yummy recipe
That's fermented beans. Rich of protein source. In the village, people who can't buy animal protein, they use Tempeh or tofu to replace animal protein.
I thought that's so difficult to find Tempeh out there, except you are making for yourself 😅
I'll try looking in the Indo shops ☺️.
Tempeh is my daily proteins every single day. I think to make this recipe soon :D
Both my parents have their maintenance (medicine) I think this is one of the best recipes they should have at home. I the main ingredients and spices blend with each other.
Hi @anggreklestari. How delicious and I even felt the aroma while reading you and seeing the moment of cooking the condiments in your photos, I love that combination. Healthy eating is the best gas we can put in our body's tank and more so when we have had a tiring day, a good dinner can be simple, delicious and nutritious in just a few minutes. I am curious about tempeh, because I have already read other recipes where you use it, but I read your answer in one of the comments, it is an interesting preparation and I see that it is very useful to replace animal protein. How nice.
A hug for you 🙏🌼
I love green peas sis @anggreklestari , and i am sure yours was a great dish
I have big stocks with green peas in my fridge sis. 😅 I can't live without vegetables everyday
That's great, sis... yes vegetables are great for our health
