3. Add the broccoli and saute for a minute.
4. Add the Red Pepper, Snow Peas, Cabbage, and Ginger and saute for another 2-3 minutes, or until crisp-tender. Do not overcook as you will be rewarming the vegetables in the finishing sauce.

6. Turn off the heat and remove the vegetables from the pan.
7. Deglaze the pan with water or cooking wine. Add in the remaining oil and heat it up until shimmering.
