Aren't all stir fries seat of the pants meals, the only strict rule being
hardest to softest... hard vegetables for in first and softer veggies are
added later.

Sesame oil? Careful with that stuff. It is more of a flavour additive
that a cooking oil. It is harder to digest than other oils. I never use
more than 1 tsp. usually as a marinade. I use peanut or vegetable oil for
cooking.
