NOTE
You may use any veggies you like. Snap peas, broccoli, beets, sweet potatoes etc. Use your imagination and what is in season.
Slice the veggies so they are all similar in thickness.
Start frying with the harder veggies first to give them a head start then add the softer ones. This will make it so the veggies are done cooking at the same time.
If you cannot find black soy beans, kidney beans make a good substitute.
