8 small broccoli florets
8 small cauliflower florets
1 tablespoon oriental sesame oil
2 large garlic cloves, minced
12 pieces canned baby corn, drained
8 snow peas, strings removed
6 large shiitake mushrooms (about 4 ounces), stemmed, caps sliced
1 small Chinese or Japanese eggplant, quartered lengthwise, cut crosswise into 1-inch pieces
3/4 cup canned unsweetened coconut milk*
2 tablespoons soy sauce
