Stir Fried Vegetables with Chinese Sauce

This has become a favorite for all 3 of us. Plus It is a very easy way to have Aanya finish her veggies and believe it or not, ask for more.
So here it goes:

Ingredients:
Broccoli Florets
Zucchini - Cubed
Beans- Cut into 1-2 inches pieces
Carrots -  Sliced/ cubed
Onions- Thickly Sliced
Mushrooms- Sliced
Spinach Leaves- About 10-15 - washed and broken into halves
Stir Fry all these veggies and spinkle a little salt to let the water get out of them fast.

Ingredients for Chinese Sauce:
Roasted Peanuts- About half a handful- remove the skin and crush slightly
Soy Sauce
Crushed or Chopped Garlic- about 4 big Cloves
Grated Ginger- About 1 inch cube
Ajino moto - 1/2 tspn
Black Pepper- 1/4 tspn
Salt - to taste
Sugar- 1 tspn
Corn Starch- 1 heap tspn

Method:
In little oil, saute ginger and garlic and add about 1 cup of water. add soy sauce, ajino moto, salt, pepper and sugar and let it come to a boil.
Dissolve Corn starch in about 2-3 tbspns of water and add to the sauce and turn off the flame. The sauce will start to thicken. After about 5 minutes turn on the flame and adjust thickness with water and add peanuts and stir fried vegetables. cook for about 4-5 minutes and serve with boiled rice or Dill Rice.
