Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh vegetables and herbs will give your stir-fry the best flavor.
  • Choose the right oil: Use an oil with a high smoke point, such as grapeseed oil or canola oil.
  • Stir-fry in batches: Don't overcrowd the pan, or the vegetables will steam instead of fry.
  • Cook the meat first: If you're using meat in your stir-fry, cook it first, then remove it from the pan and set it aside. Add the vegetables to the pan and stir-fry until they are tender, then add the meat back in.
  • Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what really makes a stir-fry special. Use a sauce that is packed with flavor, such as a teriyaki sauce or a hoisin sauce.
  • Serve over rice or noodles: Stir-fry is traditionally served over rice or noodles. You can also serve it over quinoa or cauliflower rice.
