Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 red bell pepper sliced
  • 1 carrot thinly sliced
  • 1 zucchini sliced into half moons
  • 1 small onion sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • ½ cup vegetable broth or water
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup
  • Optional: red chili flakes or sriracha

Method
 

  1. Chop all vegetables and mince garlic; prep first for smooth cooking.
  2. Heat sesame oil in a pan over medium-high heat.
  3. Add garlic and onions; sauté for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
  4. Toss in carrots and broccoli; stir-fry 3–4 minutes.
  5. Add zucchini and red bell pepper; stir-fry 2–3 minutes until just tender.
  6. Mix soy sauce, cornstarch, honey, and broth; pour over vegetables and stir well.
  7. Add chili flakes or sriracha if desired; cook 1 more minute.
  8. Serve immediately with rice or noodles.

Notes

  • Do not overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if needed.
  • Keep vegetables slightly crisp; overcooking reduces flavor and texture.
  • Adjust sauce's sweetness or saltiness to taste.
  • Can easily add tofu, chicken, or shrimp for extra protein.
