Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Broccoli florets
- 1 large Leeks (white and light green parts only, thinly sliced)
- 1 cup Snow peas
- 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger (grated)
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (low sodium)
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Prepare all ingredients. Cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets, rinse and thinly slice the leeks, and trim the ends of the snow peas.
In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water until smooth. Set aside.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet. Stir-fry for 30 seconds or until fragrant.
Add the sliced leeks and stir-fry for 2 minutes until slightly softened.
Toss in the broccoli florets and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until they turn bright green and slightly tender.
Add the snow peas and stir-fry for an additional 2 minutes. The vegetables should remain crisp-tender.
Pour the soy sauce mixture into the skillet, stirring to coat the vegetables evenly. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken.
Remove from heat and transfer to a serving dish.
Garnish with sesame seeds (if using) and serve immediately.
