Recipe Information
Vegetable Medley
Cultural Context
The Vegetable Medley is a colorful dish that reflects South Africa's rich agricultural diversity, often featuring seasonal produce.

Today, this dish has gained popularity globally, with countless variations incorporating local ingredients and spices, showcasing the versatility of vegetables in modern cuisine.
olive oil
🥗Healthier: avocado oil
💰Cheaper: canola oil
Avocado oil offers a healthier fat option with a similar cooking profile.
fresh herbs
🥗Healthier: dried herbs
💰Cheaper: no herbs
Dried herbs are more accessible and have a longer shelf life.
Microwave 1 cup of cooked rice to warm it up.
Spread the warmed rice out on the surface of a plate.
Season the rice with 1 teaspoon of mushroom seasoning, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of lemon pepper.
Layer cabbage at the bottom of the bamboo steamer as it takes longer to cook.
Add broccoli on top of the cabbage.
Add brussels sprouts, placing less since they are a personal preference.
Add eggplant on top of the brussels sprouts.
Add a small amount of bitter melon for its nutritional impact.
Add a small amount of carrot, as it is a preferred ingredient for the wife.
Finish with white button mushrooms on top of the vegetable medley.
Season the vegetables with the same seasoning used for the rice and garnish with scallions.
Set the stove to maintain a low simmer for the water in the wok.
Cover the bamboo steamer and set a timer for 15 minutes.
Occasionally check the water level in the wok and add more if it looks dry during steaming.
After 15 minutes, remove the cover and taste test the vegetables for desired texture.
If vegetables are not soft enough, steam longer as needed.
Remove the plate from the bamboo steamer and transfer it to the dinner table.
