Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 units Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, freshly grated
- 200 grams Button mushrooms, sliced
- 1 medium Zucchini, julienned
- 1 medium Bell peppers (any color), thinly sliced
- 1 cup Broccoli florets
- 1 cup Snow peas
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (use tamari for gluten-free)
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili flakes (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Instructions
Heat a wok or a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and let it heat up until shimmering.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the pan. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms start to brown and release their moisture.
Add the julienned zucchini, sliced bell peppers, broccoli florets, and snow peas to the pan. Stir-fry for 5-6 minutes, keeping the vegetables crisp-tender.
Drizzle the soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free), sesame oil, and red chili flakes (if using) over the vegetables. Toss to combine and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir to ensure the seasonings are evenly distributed.
Remove the stir-fry from heat and transfer to a serving dish. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top as a garnish before serving.
Serve immediately as a standalone dish or a side to your favorite protein.
