Wash all vegetables thoroughly. Cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets. Core and slice the red bell pepper into thin strips. Peel the carrot and cut it into thin diagonal slices.
Mince the garlic cloves and grate the fresh ginger.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water together to make a slurry. Set aside.
Heat a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and grated ginger. Stir fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the broccoli, red bell pepper, carrot, snow peas, and baby corn to the pan. Stir fry for 5-7 minutes or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Pour in the soy sauce and sesame oil, stirring well to combine.
Add the cornstarch slurry to the pan, stirring constantly for about 1-2 minutes, until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the vegetables.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Garnish the stir fry with sesame seeds before serving.
Serve the stir fry hot, either on its own or over cooked rice or noodles.
