# How to Make It:

03 - Add minced garlic, grated ginger, and chopped onion to the skillet. Sauté for 2 minutes until fragrant.
04 - Stir in shredded carrot, sliced cabbage, and red bell pepper. Sauté 4-5 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.
05 - Add soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and black pepper. Stir well and cook 1-2 minutes more. Remove from heat.
