  13. Soy Sauce
  14. Rice Vinegar
  15. Hoisin Sauce
  16. Oyster Sauce
  17. Sesame oil
  18. Cashews for more nutrition and crunch

Method: Dice all the vegetables, finely chop, onions, garlic and chilies. 

To few drops of Sesame oil in a pan add minced chicken until it turn brown and all the water is evaporated. If you do not want to overcook, remove the water that oozes from the mince chicken and save it like a stock or broth you can use it to drink later or use in any cooking. To the same pot push all the chicken aside and fry minced garlic, ginger, onions, celery and chilies until some raw smell goes away. Add chopped mushrooms, fry for a minutes and then start adding all sauces. Allow chicken to absorb all the sauces and until sauces thickens, top this with chopped spring green onions 

This is a very quick and easy one pot dish that is also a great source of protein, Fibre and nutrition!

Celery has a great balance of sodium and potassium in it, that helps for bloating Gas and Water retention! More so since we are using sauces like Soy sauce and other sauces that already have salt loaded in them. So there is absolutely no need to add any salt to prepare this dish separately!!!
