  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a pan or wok over medium flame. Add finely chopped garlic, ginger and white parts of spring onion.
  • Sauté for a minute. (If you are using the regular onion, sauté until it turns translucent.)
  • Add carrot and french beans and sauté for a minute.
  • Add finely chopped cabbage and capsicum. Stir and cook over high flame for 3-4 minutes or until the veggies are cooked but little crunchy (not until they turn soft). Add schezwan sauce, black pepper powder and salt. (Schezwan sauce already has salt in it so add only a pinch of salt to compensate for veggies). You can increase or decrease the amount of schezwan sauce per your spice level tolerance. Start by adding 1-tablespoon sauce at a time and then add more as required to get the perfect spiciness you would enjoy.
