Instructions

Begin by heating water in a pan and blanching the cauliflower, broccoli, baby corn, asparagus, and green beans for about a minute to soften them. Once done, remove them from the pan and run them under cold water to stop the cooking process.

In a frying pan, heat the oil over medium heat and add the cumin seeds. Allow them to sizzle until fragrant.
-
Quickly add the sliced mushrooms to the pan and sauté for just about a minute to enhance their flavor.
-
Incorporate the remaining blanched vegetables (excluding the spinach) into the pan. Toss them gently to ensure they are heated through for a few minutes.
-
Add the butter, allowing it to melt and coat the vegetables, then stir in the spinach, mixing everything together.
-
Season with a pinch of salt and crushed black pepper, adjusting to your taste preference.
-
Finish by squeezing in the juice of half a lemon, mixing well, and then remove from heat. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
