Adding a splash of lime juice can enhance the flavor. For a bit of heat, consider adding red pepper flakes or sriracha. Always slice your vegetables evenly for even cooking.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use frozen vegetables in this stir-fry?
Yes, frozen vegetables can be a convenient option. Just make sure to thaw and drain them well before adding to the stir-fry to avoid excess moisture, which can make the dish watery. Adjust cooking time as needed to ensure everything is heated through.
What can I use instead of cashews?
If you have nut allergies or prefer a different flavor, you can substitute cashews with sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds. They will provide a similar crunch without the nutty taste. Alternatively, omit them altogether for a nut-free version.
How can I make this dish spicier?
To add more heat, consider adding sliced jalapeños or serrano peppers during the stir-frying process. You can also incorporate chili paste or a dash of hot sauce to the dish just before serving for an extra kick. Adjust according to your spice preference!
