Add 1 large thinly sliced onion and 2 sliced bell peppers (one red, one green) to the same wok and stir-fry for 4 to 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp; next, add 4 cloves of minced garlic, 1 teaspoon of ground coriander, 0.5 teaspoon of Imeretian saffron, and 0.25 teaspoon of fenugreek powder, continuing to stir-fry for 1 more minute until the spices are fragrant.
