Directions

Heat the oil in a wok or a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.

Add the garlic, ginger, scallions, and red chili peppers, stirring constantly, about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Stir in the snow peas and carrots, and cook for about 3 minutes until the vegetables are tender and crispy.

Add the black fungus or sliced mushrooms and water chestnuts, stirring constantly, and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes.

While the vegetables are cooking, make the sauce in a small bowl until well blended.

Pour the dressing over the vegetables, and cook for about 2 minutes until the sauce gets thick and coats the vegetables.

Remove the pan from the heat, transfer the vegetables onto a serving plate.

Serve hot with steamed rice, steamed buns or crusty bread.
