FOR THE STIR-FRY:.

Chop the onion and press the garlic. Let them sit for 5-10 minutes to bring out their health promoting benefits.
3
Rinse and soak the hijiki or arame seaweed in 3/4 cup of hot water, and chop up the rest of your veggies.
4
After 10 minutes, squeeze the hijiki out and save the liquid.
5
Heat 1 tablespoons of the saved seaweed liquid in a large wok or saute pan and add the onions and carrots. Stir fry in the liquid over medium high for 2 minutes. Stir constantly.

Add the garlic and ginger. Continue to stir constantly. The ginger might stick but don't worry, it will be fine when more liquid is added.

Add the cabbage. Dissolve the miso in 2 tablespoons of the seaweed water. Add the tamari, rice wine vinegar, hijiki or arame, and tofu.

FOR THE GRAVY(IF USING):.

Mix one tablespoons of arrowroot flour with one cup cold water. Bring the left over liquid that is in the saute pan to a boil and add 1 teaspoons honey . Add the arrowroot flour liquid and using a whisk stir until thickened.
14
Pour over the top of the sir-fry before you add the sesame seeds.
