Preparation

Step 1

1. Add a splash of water to pan and water sautee garlic, onion and mushroom over high heat until they start to become tender.

2. Add remaining ingredients except for sweet red pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce and simmer uncovered over low heat for 30 minutes, allowing flavours to come together. Add sweet red pepper in last 10 minutes, so they are still slightly firm. Serve over brown rice noodles.
