- 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup soy sauce

Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Start by washing and slicing all your vegetables. Julienne the carrots, slice the bell peppers, and chop the green onions and garlic.
- Heat the Oil: In a large pan or wok, heat the sesame oil over medium-high heat. Ensure the oil coats the bottom of the pan well.
- Sauté Garlic: Add minced garlic to the pan and sauté briefly until fragrant, about 30 seconds—be careful not to burn it.
- Cook Carrots: Add the julienned carrots and stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.
- Add Bell Peppers: Toss in the sliced bell peppers and continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Incorporate Soy Sauce: Pour in the soy sauce and mix well, ensuring all the vegetables are coated.
- Mix in Green Onions: Add the chopped green onions to the pan and stir well. Cook for another minute.
- Serve: Once the vegetables are cooked to your liking—tender but still crisp—remove from heat and serve over cooked rice or noodles. Garnish with sesame seeds or cilantro if desired.
