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
- Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
- Add the onion and garlic, sauté until they become aromatic and slightly golden, about 2 minutes.
- Introduce the thinly sliced bell peppers and julienned carrots to the pan. Stir fry for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
- Incorporate the shredded cabbage into the pan and continue to stir fry for an additional 3-4 minutes, until all vegetables are tender-crisp.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper to create your sauce.
- 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.
- Remove from heat. Garnish with a sprinkle of chopped green onions and a dash of sesame seeds for an added crunch.
- 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!
