Preheat large nonstick skillet or wok over med-high heat then add long squeeze of high smoke point oil then mushrooms and pinch salt. Cook for about 3 min or until they’ve lost moisture and are taking on a golden color. Transfer mushrooms to a bowl.

Return pan to high heat and add another squeeze of oil, snow peas, bell pepper, and pinch of salt. Cook and stir for 60-90 seconds or until beginning to char, but still a bit crunchy. Add to bowl with mushrooms.

Return pan to high heat, add another long squeeze of oil followed by the spaghetti noodles. Stir fry for 2-3 min until well dehydrated on the outside. Once beginning to take on color, add ginger, garlic, scallions, and shredded carrot. Toss and stir fry until raw edge has cooked off of veg. Add back in mushrooms, peas, bell pepps, raw bean sprouts, and stir fry sauce. Stir and toss until sauce reduces to a glaze and everything is combined, about 1min.

Plate up and garnish with sesame seeds.
