Blanch for 2 minutes, then let it dry out.

Cut the vegetables into thin strips.
If you don't like the vegetables raw, stir fry them a bit then set aside.

Heat up some oil and pour it over the garlic, sesame seeds and chilli.
Let it cool, then mix all the sauce ingredients in a bowl.

Toss everything together in a big bowl, and top with some cilantro and green onion.
