Once the oil is hot throw in minced garlic or ginger to flavor the oil then throw in the vegetables and quickly stir around in the hot oil just for a couple of minutes. Take the vegetables out, heat another couple of teaspoons of oil and add in the meat fry it quickly just for a minute or two. All the vegetables and meats should be sliced thin so that they cook quickly.
Return all ingredients to the wok and add in a starch cooking sauce just until the sauce thickens. Serve immediately over white or fried rice.
