• 2 garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
• 0.25 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1

Wash and prepare the vegetables: cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets, slice the carrots into thin rounds, cut the red bell pepper into thin strips, and trim the ends of the snap peas.

Step 2

Peel and finely grate the ginger. Mince the garlic cloves.

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Once the oil is hot, add the grated ginger and minced garlic. Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Add the broccoli, carrots, and red bell pepper to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften but remain crisp.

Step 6

Add the snap peas, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Continue to stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes until the snap peas are tender and bright green.

Step 7

Remove from heat and serve immediately as a side dish or over steamed rice for a complete meal.
