Tips to make Mexican Tossed Vegetables:
You can Prepare Mexican Tossed Vegetable at Home in few easy steps. Few tips on How to make Mexican Tossed Vegetable: • For a flavourful dish, use fresh vegetables and cut them just before cooking. • Par-boil the vegetables which are a bit hard to make them soft and tender. They are easy to sauté later on. Hard vegetables, when not boiled, are difficult to digest and don’t taste good. • Always cut vegetables in similar size. Similar size vegetables cook evenly and the dish looks balanced. • Vegetables should be cut in large cubes or chunks. Fewer cuts ensure more nutrients retention. • For boiling use vegetable broth or stock instead of water. It adds flavour to the vegetables. • Purchase “baby versions” of vegetables. They have more nutrients and flavour than regular size ones. • Cook on medium-low flame for a short time. Just till vegetables are sautéed properly. Overcooking results in nutrition loss. Learn the recipe from the Mexican Tossed Vegetable Video and make this dish at home.
