Vegetable Stir-Fry

Ingredients

• 2 cup broccoli florets
• 2 carrots
• 1 bell pepper
• 1 cup snap peas
• 4 oz mushrooms
• 3 clove garlic
• 1 tbsp ginger
• ¼ cup soy sauce
• 1 tbsp sesame oil
• 1 tbsp rice vinegar
• 1 tbsp cornstarch
• 2 tbsp water
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1 tsp sesame seeds (optional)
• 4 cup cooked rice

Steps

1. Prepare all vegetables: chop broccoli, slice carrots, dice bell pepper, slice mushrooms, mince garlic and ginger.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, cornstarch, and water to make the stir-fry sauce.
3. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add garlic and ginger and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
4. Add carrots and broccoli to the skillet and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until slightly tender-crisp.
5. Add bell pepper, snap peas, and mushrooms. Continue to stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes until vegetables are tender but still have a bite.
6. Pour the prepared sauce over the vegetables and stir constantly until the sauce thickens and coats the vegetables, about 1-2 minutes.
7. Serve immediately over cooked rice, garnished with sesame seeds if desired.
