Ingredients

• 3 cups Broccoli florets
• 2 medium Yellow bell peppers
• 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Wash the broccoli florets and yellow bell peppers thoroughly. Cut the broccoli into small bite-sized florets. Remove the seeds from the yellow bell peppers and slice them into thin strips.

Step 2

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

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water to create a sauce. Stir until the cornstarch is fully dissolved and set aside.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and grated ginger. Stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn them.

Step 6

Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until they start to turn bright green and soften slightly.

Step 7

Add the yellow bell pepper strips to the skillet and stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes, ensuring they're evenly coated in the ginger and garlic mixture.

Step 8

Sprinkle the salt and black pepper over the vegetables and mix well.

Step 9

Pour the prepared sauce into the skillet, stirring quickly to coat the vegetables evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and all the vegetables are tender but still crisp.

Step 10

Remove from the heat and transfer the dish to a serving plate.

Step 11

Garnish with sesame seeds before serving.

Step 12

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