Vegetable Stir Fry (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Vegetables

01 - 1 cup peeled and thin carrot slices
02 - 1 red bell pepper, cut into thin strips
03 - 1 15-ounce can baby corn, drained (optional)
04 - 4 ounces snap peas
05 - 2 cups of broccoli florets
06 - 1 cup of zucchini, sliced up
07 - 1 cup of cut-up crimini mushrooms

→ Sauce

08 - ¼ cup of honey or brown sugar
09 - ½ cup tamari or low-sodium soy sauce
10 - A pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
11 - 2 teaspoons of fresh grated ginger
12 - 4 minced garlic cloves
13 - 2 tablespoons of cornstarch or arrowroot powder
14 - 1 tablespoon of toasted sesame oil

→ Other

15 - ¼ cup of scallions, sliced thin
16 - 1 tablespoon of oil for cooking

# Instructions:

01 - Set a big skillet over medium-high heat, warm up oil, then toss in veggies. Stir around and cook them for about 5-6 minutes until they're bright and just tender.
02 - In one bowl, mix soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, sugar, and red pepper flakes if you want some kick. In another bowl, dissolve cornstarch in ½ cup cold water. Mix the two together.
03 - Dump sauce over the stir-fried veggies. Mix it around, then let it cook until sauce thickens up nicely and vegetables reach a tender texture, around 5 minutes.
04 - Scoop onto plates, then sprinkle the top with sliced green onions.

# Notes:

01 - Use tamari instead of soy sauce if you need gluten-free
02 - Switch honey in place of brown sugar for a more natural sweetness
