How to Prepare Food in the Best Stir Fry Woks

Great seasoning ideas

First, chop the meat and vegetables and then set the wok to medium-high heat. When the surface of the wok is hot, add the oil. Swirl around to coat the wok and then add the seasonings such as garlic, onion and ginger.

Immediately add the meat, fish or poultry and toss around to sear in the juices. The veggies are added last. Add them in order of the most dense and toughest to cook first. Then add the others in gradually depending on which ones will cook the fastest.

If you’re not allergic, toss in some nuts (such as pine nuts) for extra crunch. In a few minutes you’ll have a great meal, perfect for serving over jasmine or brown rice.

You’ll feel like a certified chef when cooking with a wok and your meals will taste like it too.
