Stir frying

  • When using steaks, cut them thinly across the grain into 1cm strips, this prevents shrinkage and helps to tenderise the meat.
  • Prior to cooking the meat cut up a selection of vegetables into thin strips, allowing about twice the quantity to meat.
  • When all ingredients are ready, heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a wok or large frying pan, and when hot carefully add the meat and stir-fry for about 2-4 minutes per 225g meat.
  • Then add vegetables and sauce and stir fry together for a further 2 mins.
