Ingredients

• 200 grams Snow peas
• 1 medium, julienned Carrot
• 1 medium, sliced into strips Red bell pepper
• 3 cloves, minced Garlic
• 1 tablespoon, grated Ginger
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon, optional for garnish Sesame seeds

Directions

Step 1

Wash and trim the snow peas by removing the tough strings along their edges, if necessary.

Step 2

Julienne the carrot and slice the red bell pepper into thin strips. Mince the garlic and grate the ginger.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water. Whisk until smooth and set aside.

Step 4

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

Step 5

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

Step 6

Add the carrots and red bell pepper to the skillet. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until slightly tender but still crisp.

Step 7

Add the snow peas to the skillet and stir-fry for another 2 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp.

Step 8

Pour the sauce mixture into the skillet, stirring quickly to coat the vegetables. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and evenly coats the vegetables.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Garnish with sesame seeds, if desired, and serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles.
