This recipe is a part of my easy healthy food project!
I'm experimenting with staple side dishes that have lots of vegetables with as little oil and sweet ingredients as possible.

Since it's a healthy dish, the seasoning is a little on the lighter side. The sesame seeds are aromatic so it doesn't bother me that much. If it's not enough, add miso and soy sauce, and adjust the taste to your liking. Recipe by chibirock
