When the oil is hot, add the remainder of the garlic..



Stir-fry for 10 seconds and add the green pepper..



Stir-fry for a minute and then add the bamboo shoots..



Splash a bit of water, soy sauce or chicken broth on the vegetables if they begin to dry out while stir-frying(Total time for stir-frying the vegetables should be about 2 minutes).
