We wash and disinfect all the vegetables thoroughly. We cut the broccoli into small tree-like pieces, we can also use the tender part of the stalk, chopping it into small pieces and setting both things aside separately. We also cut the green beans into pieces of about 1 cm, then we slice the carrots diagonally, next we cut the peppers into pieces of about 2 cm, we slice the mushrooms, finely chop the garlic and ginger; we trim part of the green onion tops and cut them lengthwise in half. After chopping all the vegetables, we put water on the fire with a little salt. When it starts to boil, we add the chopped pieces of the broccoli stalk; two minutes later, we add the broccoli florets, wait about 8 minutes, and remove them from the water with a strainer, without turning off the heat. In the same water, we add the cut green beans, letting them cook for 5 minutes, after which we also remove them from the water without turning off the heat. To save water and take advantage of the nutrients from the vegetables, we cook the spaghetti in the same water. At the same time, in a pot that can hold all the ingredients on the heat, we first add the chopped garlic, then the oil to prevent it from smoking, followed by the onion, then the pepper and carrots, and finally the mushrooms. We add the cooked broccoli along with its stalk pieces, and we also add the cooked green beans. On the other hand, the spaghetti should already be cooked, so we remove it from the water with tongs and add it to the rest of the vegetables, seasoning with soy sauce. We integrate all the ingredients and let them cook for 2 more minutes, then we serve!
