INSTRUCTIONS
MARINADE
Mix the soy sauce, cumin, oregano and crushed/powdered garlic and marinate
all vegetables in it for a few minutes. In the meantime, heat a wok or iron
skillet (it makes a big difference to me if it's iron) so water boils away
instantly. If you wish, coat the surface with a little oil, but I rarely
find this necessary (you'll notice there's no oil in the marinade... fewer
calories). Toss in the vegetables with a tbspn water, shake the pan, and
cover for a few minutes, until the broccoli is bright green. Stir the
vegetables -- I like to get them a little burned on the fringes. Add black
pepper just before you remove the skillet from heat. The important thing is
to prevent the veggies from becoming too tender -- crispness is essential.
Wrap in tortillas and add anything else -- salsa(!), guacamole, cheese or
sour cream if desired. They takes ten minutes to make and I usually eat way
too many of them. :-)
