Rinse the snow peas under cold water and trim the ends by snapping off the tips and pulling away the stringy part along the side.
Clean the button mushrooms with a damp paper towel, then slice them into thin, even pieces.
In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water until smooth. Set this sauce mix aside.
Heat a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil and swirl to coat the pan.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the hot oil. Stir-fry for about 30 seconds, until fragrant but not browned.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the pan and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, until they start to soften and release their moisture.
Add the snow peas to the pan. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Stir-fry for another 2 minutes, or until the snow peas are bright green and tender-crisp.
Give the prepared sauce mix a quick stir to recombine, then pour it into the pan. Stir everything together for 1-2 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly and coat the vegetables evenly.
Remove the pan from heat and transfer the stir-fried snow peas and mushrooms to a serving dish. Serve immediately as a side or over steamed rice for a complete meal.
