Servings: 4

Ingredients

Sesame oil
2 tablespoons
Garlic
3 cloves, minced
Onion
1 medium, thinly sliced
Bell peppers
2 medium, thinly sliced
Carrots
2 medium, julienned
Cabbage
1 medium, shredded
Soy sauce
1/4 cup
Rice vinegar
2 tablespoons
Honey
1 tablespoon
Salt
1/2 teaspoon
Pepper
1/2 teaspoon
Green onions
2, chopped for garnish
Sesame seeds
1 tablespoon, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the onion and garlic, sauté until they become aromatic and slightly golden, about 2 minutes.
  3. Introduce the thinly sliced bell peppers and julienned carrots to the pan. Stir fry for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
  4. Incorporate the shredded cabbage into the pan and continue to stir fry for an additional 3-4 minutes, until all vegetables are tender-crisp.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper to create your sauce.
  6. Pour the prepared sauce over the stir-fried vegetables, ensuring they are evenly coated. Let it simmer for 1-2 minutes until the sauce has slightly thickened and absorbed by the vegetables.
  7. Remove from heat. Garnish with a sprinkle of chopped green onions and a dash of sesame seeds for an added crunch.
  8. Serve hot on its own for a light meal or pair it with steamed rice or noodles for a complete, satisfying course. Enjoy your culinary trip to Asia!
