Prepare the vegetables by cutting the broccoli into small florets, slicing the red bell pepper into thin strips, peeling and slicing the carrot into thin matchsticks, and trimming the ends off the snow peas. Finely chop the green onions, reserving the green tops for garnish, and mince the garlic and ginger.
In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and cornstarch with water to make the stir-fry sauce.
Heat a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and ginger, stirring quickly for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the broccoli, carrot, and bell pepper strips first as they take longer to cook. Stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes, allowing them to begin softening but still maintaining a slight crunch.
Add the snow peas and chopped green onions to the wok and continue to stir-fry for another 2 minutes.
Pour the prepared stir-fry sauce over the vegetables, and toss well to coat all the ingredients evenly.
Season with salt and black pepper, according to taste.
Continue to stir-fry for another minute until the sauce thickens and everything is well combined.
Remove from heat and serve immediately, garnished with reserved green onion tops.
