Stir-Fry

Stir-Fry

Stir fry recipes can be elaborate or simple, with meat or just vegetables, with or without sauce. Vegetables are quick-cooked so they are still somewhat crisp and fresh. Meats are sliced thin for even and fast cooking. If you don't have a wok to stir fry in, use a large skillet.

no wok? no problem!

For most recipes you can just use a heavy skillet. Use non-stick and you can reduce the oil called for to save a few calories.

stir fry like a pro:

Slice, dice, and chop ingredients before starting. Mix up any seasonings and sauces and set aside. Stir fries cook up quickly so having all the ingredients ready to go means that everything will cook evenly

1-2-3 stir fry sauce

1 part sesame oil
2 parts oyster sauce
3 parts soy sauce

Mix together; add at the end of stir-frying
