Udon noodle stir fry is a great way to get lots of healthy and seasonal vegetables into your diet, while enjoying a delicious meal.
Snow peas are a good source of vitamins B1, B2, B3, C and K (important for helping your blood to clot). They are also an excellent source of dietary fibre and contain folate.
Ginger not only adds a warm zing to our stir fry, but it also has many possible health benefits that include relieving nausea, loss of appetite, motion sickness, and pain. The root or underground stem (rhizome) of the ginger plant can be consumed fresh, powdered, dried as a spice, in oil form, or as juice. Ginger has long been used for culinary and medicinal purposes.
