3. Add all the vegetables, and turn up the heat. Stir-fry until everything is bright and tender-crisp, not more than 5 minutes, adding very small amounts of additional broth or water, just enough to keep the pan moist.

4. Whisk the sauce together and pour it in. When the liquid thickens and everything is nicely heated through, season to taste with additional soy sauce and serve at once as suggested in the headnote.
