Gemuesepfanne (Simple Vegetable Pan)
Gemuesepfanne (Simple Vegetable Pan) is German home cooking, eaten at dinner and lunch. On the plate it is the dish at the centre and the cooked vegetable. Below is what usually sits beside it, what it does and does not contain, and what else to cook once you have made it.
Ingredients
- 3 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 onion, sliced
- 2 carrots, thinly sliced
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
- 1 zucchini, sliced
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 8 oz button mushrooms, sliced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/4 cup vegetable broth
- 1 tsp dried herbs (Italian mix or thyme)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
How to cook it
- Heat the oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat, add the onion and carrots, and stir-fry for 3 minutes.
- Add the bell peppers, zucchini, and broccoli and stir-fry for 4 to 5 minutes, keeping the vegetables moving so they cook fast and stay a little crisp.
- Add the mushrooms and garlic and cook for 3 minutes more, until the mushrooms soften.
- Pour in the vegetable broth, add the dried herbs, salt, and pepper, and cook for 2 minutes, until the vegetables are just tender and the pan is glossy.
- Scatter the parsley over the top and serve hot, the simplified quick vegetable pan German families cook as a healthy weeknight dinner, not an attempt at anything authentically Asian.
