  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash and chop the mixed vegetables into bite-sized pieces. Make sure to keep the sizes uniform for even cooking.

  2. 2

    Heat the Olive Oil

    In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium heat until it shimmers but does not smoke.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Garlic

    Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1-2 minutes, until fragrant but not browned.

  4. 4

    Add Cardamom and Vegetables

    Stir in the crushed cardamom pods and mixed vegetables. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Stir well to combine.

  5. 5

    Cook the Vegetables

    Cook the vegetables for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender yet still crisp.

  6. 6

    Finish with Cilantro and Lemon Juice

    Once the vegetables are cooked, remove the skillet from heat. Stir in the chopped cilantro and lemon juice. Adjust seasoning with chili flakes if desired.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Transfer the Garlic & Cardamom Veggie Fir Fir to a serving dish and enjoy warm as a side or main dish.
