3 steps to prepare stir fry. Thank you to Jess for sharing this………..

1 – Always cook your meat first in small batches to seal it and keep it tender. Adding too much meat will reduce the temperature of the wok and make it stew, resulting in tough, flavourless meat. Don’t overcook the meat at this stage as it will continue to cook when it’s returned to the wok.

2 – Stir-fry onions first, then add hard vegetables such as carrot and broccoli. Quick-cooking vegetables, such as snow peas, leafy greens and bean sprouts, should be added towards the end of cooking. If using vegies that have a combination of both textures, such as gai laan, add the stems first and the leaves later.

3 – Add sauces and pre-cooked noodles last. They only need to be stir-fried until just heated through.
