Note
Do not overcook the vegetables; they should remain crisp and retain their original vibrant colors.
For a thicker sauce, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of water and add it during the last minute of cooking.
You can substitute the beef bouillon with 1 cup of vegetable broth and add a tablespoon of oyster sauce for deeper flavor.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet to maintain texture.
Feel free to customize the vegetable mix with broccoli florets, red bell peppers, or baby corn based on preference.
