Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups broccoli florets cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 medium red bell pepper sliced
  • 1 cup snap peas trimmed
  • 1 cup carrots julienned
  • 8 oz baby corn drained if canned
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil for stir frying
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger minced
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons green onions sliced for garnish

Method
 

  1. Wash and cut all vegetables into uniform bite-sized pieces. Keep them separate and ready near your cooking area for quick stir frying.
  2. In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, oyster sauce, and cornstarch mixture. Stir well and set aside.
  3. Heat a large wok or skillet over high heat until very hot. Add vegetable oil and swirl to coat the pan.
  4. Add minced garlic and ginger to the hot oil. Stir fry for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn.
  5. Add carrots and broccoli first, stir frying for 2 minutes. Then add bell pepper, snap peas, and baby corn. Continue stir frying for 3-4 minutes until vegetables are crisp-tender.
  6. Pour the sauce mixture over the vegetables and toss everything together. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats all the vegetables evenly.
  7. Drizzle with sesame oil and toss once more. Transfer to a serving plate and garnish with sliced green onions. Serve immediately with steamed rice.

Notes

Keep the heat high throughout cooking to achieve that authentic restaurant-style char and crisp texture. Don't overcrowd the wok - cook in batches if needed to maintain high heat. You can substitute any vegetables you prefer, but try to choose ones with similar cooking times for best results.
