Preparation
Put a large wok or cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add oil and heat until nearly smoking, add mushrooms and stir to coat in oil. Stir fry on high heat for 2 minutes.
Reduce heat slightly and add garlic, ginger, honey, sesame oil and soy sauce. Immediately follow with cabbage and bok choy. Stir constantly on medium heat until sauce has glazed the vegetables--careful not to burn. Garnish with scallions and sesame seeds.
