Ingredients

  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup snap peas
  • 1 medium carrot, julienned
  • 1 small zucchini, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp ginger, grated
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch (optional, for thickening sauce)
  • 2 tbsp water (if using cornstarch)
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds (for garnish)
  • Green onions, sliced (for garnish)

Preparation Steps

  1. Prep the vegetables: Wash and chop all vegetables into bite-sized pieces. Keep them ready for quick cooking.
  2. Make the sauce: In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, and ginger. If you prefer a thicker sauce, dissolve cornstarch in water and add it to the mixture.
  3. Heat the wok: Place a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add a splash of sesame oil or neutral oil.
  4. Cook the veggies: Start by stir-frying garlic and ginger for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add broccoli, carrots, and snap peas, cooking for 2-3 minutes.
  5. Add remaining vegetables: Toss in the bell peppers and zucchini. Stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes, keeping the vegetables slightly crisp.
  6. Combine with sauce: Pour the sauce over the vegetables and toss to coat evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the veggies.
  7. Garnish and serve: Remove from heat and garnish with sesame seeds and green onions. Serve hot with rice or noodles.
