Ingredients
  

  • 500 g zucchini
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 medium capsicum
  • 1 medium carrot
  • 250 g green beans
  • 4 fresh eggs
  • 1 whole onion
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1/4 cup fresh coriander
  • sesame seeds for garnish

Satay Sauce

  • 1/4 cup peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce (tamari)
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 2 cm ginger
  • 2-3 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar (or lemon juice)

Instructions
 

  • Start by slicing your zucchini into noodles using a spiraliser. If you don't have one of those, use a peeler to peel off long strips. Put the noodles in a colander over a bowl and sprinkle the zucchini noodles with salt. Leave to sit for half an hour to allow the liquid to release.
  • Finely dice the onion and garlic. Chop the capsicum, carrots and beans into long thin strips.
  • In a bowl, whisk the eggs together until well combined. Heat 1 tbsp of sesame oil in a saucepan and pour in the whisked eggs. Cook over medium heat for 2-3 minutes before flipping. 
    Once cooked, remove from the pan and cut into thin strips. Set aside.
  • In a bowl, combine all the satay sauce ingredients together and use a stick blender or other blender to mix until a smooth sauce. Set aside.
  • In a large saucepan or wok, heat the remaining tbsp of sesame oil and cook the onions and garlic until fragrant. Add in the carrots, capsicum and beans and sauté for 5 minutes. While it's cooking, take the zucchini noodles and squeeze as much water out of them as you can.
    Add them to the saucepan and cook for 2-3 minutes more.
  • Add in the satay sauce and cook for 2 minutes before taking off the heat and stirring through the omelette strips. Finely chop the coriander.
    Scoop into a serving dish and sprinkle with the chopped coriander and a tablespoon of sesame seeds.
