Stir Fried Portebellos, Carrots and Snow Pieas with Soy Maple Sauce

I heard about  America's Test Kitchen's new cookbook, "The Complete Vegetarian Cookbook" from multiple sources.  I had to order it from the New England Book Fair, and I waited, and it arrived, during Passover!!!!

The first recipe I made from it was amazing!!!!!

2 t grated fresh ginger
a few flakes of red pepper flakes

2 carrots, peeled and cut into two inch long match sticks

GLAZE - whisk all together and keep in a small bowl

SAUCE - place all ingredients in a bowl, and whisk.
