Instructions
- Soak the bean thread noodles in warm water until softened, about 15 minutes.
- In a large skillet, heat a couple of tablespoons of vegetable broth and saute the cabbage for about 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms, garlic and ginger and continue to saute for another 4 minutes. The mushrooms should be soft. Add the carrots and bell pepper and cook an additional 5 minutes or until carrots and pepper are hot, but still have a nice bite. Remove from the heat.
