Salt (to taste)

Cooking oil (2 tablespoons)
Water (1/4 cup)

Sesame oil (1 teaspoon)

Instructions

In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, honey, cornstarch, and water to create a smooth stir fry sauce. Set aside.
Heat cooking oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat until shimmering.
Add minced garlic and ginger to the skillet, stir frying for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Introduce the carrots, bell peppers, snow peas, and mushrooms to the skillet. Stir fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
Add the bok choy to the skillet and continue stir frying for an additional 2 minutes until the bok choy is wilted but still vibrant.
Pour the prepared stir fry sauce over the vegetables, tossing to coat evenly. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and clings to the vegetables.
Season with salt and pepper to taste before serving.
Serve the bok choy and vegetable stir fry hot over steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
