Tips

NoteHave everything chopped before the pan gets hot. Stir-fry cooking moves much faster than prep.

NoteI also don't cook the bok choy until it's completely soft. A little crunch makes the whole bowl fresher.

Frequently asked

Can I swap the vegetables?+

Absolutely — snap peas, cabbage, or bell pepper all work. Keep the total volume about the same so the pan stays hot.

Is there a gluten-free option?+

Use brown rice pasta and make sure your tamari is certified gluten-free.
