VEGETABLES

When stir-frying vegetables only, you may add a little water or stock after a while and the wok can then be covered to finish the cooking.
STIR-FRIED MEAT AND VEGETABLES

In a stir-fried mix, the meat is stir-fried first and then removed. The vegetables are next placed in the wok to stir-fry and, to finish off the dish, the meat is tossed with the vegetables and the seasoning stirred in.

OIL IN STIR-FRYING

It is always good to cut down on total fat intake. In most Asian cookbooks stir-fry recipes recommend using 3-4 tbsp of oil to serve four people. Such quantities of oil bring too many calories and simply too much fat into our Western-style diet. As little as 1-1 1/2 tbsp oil is sufficient to stir-fry food for four people, but remember, you must take care to stir and toss the food constantly.
