- 1 medium head green cabbage, chopped into bite-sized pieces
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1-inch piece ginger, grated
- 1 bell pepper, sliced
- 1 carrot, julienned
- 1 cup snap peas or snow peas
- 3 green onions, sliced (whites and greens separated)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional)
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- Add minced garlic and grated ginger; sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the chopped cabbage and stir-fry for 3 to 5 minutes until slightly tender but still crunchy.
- Toss in the bell pepper, julienned carrot, and snap peas. Cook for another 3 to 4 minutes.
- Stir in the white parts of the green onions, soy sauce, oyster sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Mix well to coat the vegetables.
- Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 1-2 more minutes to let flavors meld.
- Remove from heat, garnish with the green parts of the green onions and sesame seeds, and serve hot.
Notes
- For extra char, let the cabbage sit undisturbed in the pan for 1 minute without stirring.
- To make this dish vegan, ensure you use a vegetarian stir-fry sauce instead of oyster sauce.
- Ensure the wok is very hot before adding ingredients to maintain the 'crispy' texture.
