Kinpira is basically a style that boils down to “sauté and simmer” so naturally that’s all it is. In this one I used turnips and carrots but any root vegetables sliced thinly will do. This makes a really quick and tasty side dish and a nice way to sneak in some extra veggies.
Kinpira
3 carrots, julienned
2 turnips, julienned
2 tbsp sesame seeds
1 tbsp soy sauce
oil
salt
Directions
1
In a skillet or pan add a small coating of oil and add the turnips and carrots with a pinch of salt and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes.
2
Add enough water to just cover the bottom of the pan. Cover and cook for 10 minutes or until the vegetables are almost cooked.
3
Add soy sauce, cover again, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes more. Toss in the sesame seeds to serve.
