Begin by preparing the vegetables. Clean the button mushrooms with a damp cloth and slice them thinly.
Deseed the red and yellow bell peppers and cut them into thin strips.
Chop the green onions, separating the white parts from the green tops.
Mince the garlic cloves and grate the fresh ginger.
In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, water, and cornstarch. Mix well and set aside.
Heat a large non-stick pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add vegetable oil and swirl to coat.
Add minced garlic, grated ginger, and the white parts of the green onions. Stir-fry for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Increase the heat to high and add the sliced mushrooms. Stir-fry for 5-6 minutes until they are browned and released their moisture.
Add the bell pepper strips to the mushrooms. Stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes until the peppers are slightly softened but still crisp.
Lower the heat to medium, pour in the soy sauce mixture, and stir quickly to coat all the vegetables. The sauce will thicken slightly.
Drizzle sesame oil over the stir fry and season with black pepper and salt. Toss everything together to combine well.
Garnish with the green parts of the chopped green onions and serve immediately. Enjoy as a main dish or a side with rice or noodles.
