Instructions

Heat oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Sauté aromatics: Add garlic and ginger; stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add vegetables: Toss in broccoli and mushrooms. Stir-fry for 2–3 minutes, then add a splash of water, cover, and steam for another 2–3 minutes until broccoli is tender-crisp.
Add sauces: Stir in soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar (if using). Pour in cornstarch slurry and cook for another 1–2 minutes, until sauce thickens and coats the veggies.
Serve hot over rice or noodles. Garnish with sesame seeds or green onions if desired.

Notes

Add tofu, tempeh, or chicken for a protein boost.
Red bell pepper or snow peas are great add-ins.

Adjust soy sauce to taste if you prefer less salt.
