Instructions

Prepare the sauce:
In a small bowl, mix together the honey, stir-fry sauce, and crushed red pepper flakes. Set this sauce mixture aside for later use. -
Cook the vegetables:
In a wok or large skillet, heat the cooking oil over medium-high heat. Add the broccoli florets, sliced mushrooms, onion, and julienned carrots. Stir-fry the vegetables, tossing them occasionally, for about 2 to 3 minutes, until they are slightly tender yet still crisp. -
Add the honey sauce:
Pour the prepared honey sauce over the vegetables in the wok or skillet. Stir well to ensure that all the vegetables are coated evenly with the sauce. Continue to cook for another minute or until the sauce becomes bubbly and the vegetables are fully glazed with the sauce. -
Serve and enjoy:
Serve the stir-fried vegetables as a flavorful side dish, or for a more substantial meal, serve them over steamed rice or noodles. Enjoy this simple and nutritious dish packed with flavor!
