Ingredients
Scale
For the Stir-Fried Veggies:
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 small onion, sliced
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 cup sliced carrots
- 1 cup bell pepper strips (any color)
- 1 cup snap peas or green beans
- ½ cup sliced mushrooms
- Salt and black pepper to taste
For the White Sauce:
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1½ cups milk
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Make the White Sauce: In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1–2 minutes. Slowly whisk in milk, stirring constantly until smooth and thickened, about 3–5 minutes. Stir in Parmesan (if using), garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
- Prepare the Veggies: Heat butter and olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add garlic and onion and cook for 1–2 minutes until fragrant. Add the remaining vegetables and stir-fry for 5–7 minutes until tender-crisp. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Combine and Serve: Reduce heat to low and pour the white sauce over the veggies. Stir to coat everything evenly and cook for 1–2 minutes until heated through. Serve immediately over rice, noodles, or as a side dish.
Notes
- You can use any vegetables you have on hand—zucchini, cauliflower, or baby corn work great too.
- To make it dairy-free, substitute plant-based milk and vegan butter, and skip the cheese.
