What is stir fry?
Stir frying is a common chineses cooking technique in which the ingredients are cut into small bite size pieces and then continously stirred in a wok. It is essential to pre-heat oil in the wok to high temperature before cooking the ingredients. This would give the food quality “wok hei”. The term “wok hei” is used to describe how well the flavour and “essence” of the ingredients are brought out naturally. Stir frying, unlike steaming and simmering, keeps the texture of the food.
