The Method

1
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Set aside.
2
In another small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and cold water until smooth. Set aside.
3
Heat vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and white parts of green onions and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
4
Add broccoli florets, red bell pepper, and carrots to the wok. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, until vegetables are slightly tender-crisp.
5
Add cubed ham and pineapple chunks to the wok. Stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes, until ham is heated through and pineapple is slightly caramelized.
6
Pour the honey garlic sauce over the ham and vegetables. Bring to a simmer and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens slightly.
7
Stir in the cornstarch slurry. Cook for another 30 seconds, or until the sauce is thickened to your desired consistency.
8
Remove from heat and garnish with the green parts of green onions and sesame seeds (if using).
9

Chef's Tips

For a spicier stir-fry, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of sriracha to the honey garlic sauce.

You can substitute other vegetables such as snow peas, snap peas, or bok choy.

Adjust the amount of honey and soy sauce to your taste preferences.

If you don't have rice vinegar, you can use apple cider vinegar or white vinegar as a substitute, but use slightly less.
