Ingredients

• 150 g Snow peas
• 150 g Sugar snap peas
• 100 g Green peas (fresh or frozen)
• 1 medium Red bell pepper (optional, for color and flavor)
• 3 cloves Garlic
• 1 tbsp Fresh ginger
• 2 tbsp Sesame oil
• 2 tbsp Soy sauce
• 1 tbsp Oyster sauce (optional)
• 1 tbsp Honey
• 1 tsp Cornstarch
• 2 tbsp Water
• 1 tsp Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
• 2 stalks Scallions (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Wash and trim the snow peas and sugar snap peas. Remove the strings from the pods if necessary.

Step 2

If using fresh green peas, blanch them in boiling water for 2 minutes, then drain and set aside. If using frozen peas, thaw them and set aside.

Step 3

Slice the red bell pepper into thin strips, if using.

Step 4

Mince the garlic and grate the ginger.

Step 5

In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, oyster sauce (if using), honey, cornstarch, and water to create the stir-fry sauce.

Step 6

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add sesame oil and let it get hot.

Step 7

Add the garlic and ginger to the skillet and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 8

Add the snow peas, sugar snap peas, and red bell pepper (if using) to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until they are crisp-tender.

Step 9

Add the green peas to the skillet and cook for another 2 minutes.

Step 10

Push the vegetables to the edges of the skillet to create a well in the center. Pour in the stir-fry sauce and let it bubble for 1 minute, then toss everything together to coat the vegetables evenly.

Step 11

Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the stir-fry to a serving dish.

Step 12

Sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped scallions on top for garnish if desired.

Step 13

Serve immediately as a side dish or over rice or noodles for a complete meal.
