Sesame oil lends a nutty flavor to this colorful side dish. It takes only 15 minutes to make and there's no cooking required, so you'll find yourself making it whenever you need to get a quick side on the table. All you have to do is whisk some sesame oil, ginger, red pepper flakes, and salt together, then toss in the carrots, red peppers, snow peas, and water chestnuts. Feel free to substitute with any type of crunchy veg you have on hand for this versatile recipe. You can also make it ahead of time, as it has to hang in the fridge to let the flavors marry for about an hour.
