🍽 Ingredients

📖 Instructions

  1. First things first, prep your veggies! Wash everything thoroughly. Chop the broccoli into bite-sized florets. Thinly slice the carrots and the scallions. Mince the garlic – don't be shy with it, the more the merrier. Remember to adjust the ingredient quantities if you're cooking for more or fewer people.
  2. Next, get your wok or large skillet nice and hot. Add a tablespoon of oil. Don’t be afraid to use high heat; a good stir-fry relies on that searing action!
  3. Toss in the broccoli and carrots, and stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until they start to soften just a tad. You want a bit of crunch left!
  4. Add the garlic and ginger. Stir for 15-20 seconds, until fragrant. If you burn the garlic, I will not be held responsible ;) just kidding (maybe...).
  5. Now comes the fun part: add your sauce! Stir-fry gently for about 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly. It's all about that perfect glossy finish. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed; a dash of soy sauce or rice vinegar might add depth.
  6. Lastly, bring in the scallions. Toss them into the wok and give everything another 30 seconds or so of stir-frying. You're aiming for that wonderfully balanced dish that showcases both vibrant colors and flavors. Don't overcook—that's the key!
  7. Serve immediately! Enjoy your delicious China Vegetable Stir-Fry with Hoisin Sauce. It pairs great with fluffy rice or even some noodles! Mmm, tasty!
