Directions
Step #1 Start by slicing the potatoes crosswise into circular slices, dropping them as you go into cold water to stop them from discolouring.
Step #2 If you want to be fancy, use a small knife to cut out narrow v-shaped wedges 1/4 inch deep at 1/2 inch intervals all around the outside of the potatoes.
Step #3 Also cut the carrots lengthwise into quarters & then crosswise into 2-inch lengths.
Step #4 When you are ready to cook the veggies, first drop the potatoes into boiling water, then add the carrots & beans.
Step #5 Boil for 5 mins, then drain & run cold water over them to stop the cooking process.
Step #6 Set them aside to drain completely.
Step #7 Meanwhile, heat the oil In a large-ish saucepan & add the onions, green pepper & chilies.
Step #8 Cook for about 5 mins until the veggies are soft but not brown.
Step #9 Add the garlic, ginger, salt & pepper & stir for a min or so.
Step #10 Add the reserved vegetables & the scallions & mix until everything is coated in oil.
Step #11 Reduce the heat to low, cover partially & cook for about 10 mins or until the veggies are tender but still crisp to the bite.
