Instructions:
Prepare the Vegetables:
Heat vegetable or olive oil in a large wok or pan over medium-high heat.
Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir-Fry the Vegetables:
Add the sliced zucchini to the pan. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
Add Mushrooms:
Add the sliced mushrooms to the pan with the zucchini. Continue to stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes until the zucchini is tender and mushrooms are cooked.
Season the Stir-Fry:
Pour in the soy sauce (or tamari) and oyster sauce (if using). Stir well to coat the vegetables evenly.
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed (be cautious with salt due to the soy sauce).
Finish and Serve:
Drizzle sesame oil over the stir-fry and toss to combine.
Remove from heat and garnish with chopped green onions.
Serve:
Serve the stir-fry hot over cooked rice or noodles.
Tips:
For added protein, include chicken, shrimp, or tofu.
For extra heat, consider adding chili garlic sauce or red pepper flakes.
For crunch and freshness, add snow peas or bean sprouts towards the end of cooking.
