Edamame Stir Fry – An easy weeknight dinner!

Edamame is the Japanese name for immature soybeans. They are often called as “stem beans,” because they are traditionally sold with the stems still attached. Edamame is popular in Asian cuisine; however, it is easily available in India too. Having said that, it is necessary to choose organically and non-genetically modified edamame, as soy is one of the most genetically modified crops.
Edamame is an excellent source of plant-based protein and rich in fibre, calcium, magnesium, folate and Vitamin K. Vitamin K is an essential nutrient that plays a role in blood clotting, helps maintain a healthy metabolism, and regulates calcium levels—and edamame is full of it. It also has 9 essential amino acids including leucine, lysine, threonine, tryptophan, which makes it a good source of plant protein.
Here is a simple, quick, delicious, and healthy stir-fry Edamame along with other vegetables!
