- â…” cup soy sauce
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder

- Sauté Vegetables: Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add shredded cabbage and carrots and sauté for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender.

Notes
- Breaking the spaghetti noodles before adding allows for easier stirring and even cooking in one pot.
- Adjust the soy sauce and brown sugar amounts to taste if you prefer a sweeter or saltier sauce.
- Use a large pot or deep skillet to prevent overcrowding and splatter while cooking.
- For extra protein, consider adding cooked chicken, tofu, or shrimp.
- Sesame seeds can be toasted beforehand for enhanced flavor.
