I am certain that my wok is magic, because all food made in it is so delicious. It's like it can't go wrong. My present wok is the best one I have had- it is made of thin cast iron and has a little flattened part on the bottom. My more classic wok rusted and wasn't as wonderful as this one.
BASIC RECIPE STIR FRY
BASIC RECIPE STIR FRY
finely diced vegetables (choose several with an eye for different colors and shapes- I think the visual is very important in chinese food)
onion and garlic (always)
other favorites here are chinese cabbage, peppers, mushrooms, bean sprouts, celery, carrots, string beans, pea pods, broccoli ...whatever.
Meat - we use mostly finely diced raw chicken or turkey, sometimes beef or pork, sometimes we make small meatballs we add at the end or we add diced ham.
While we fry the meat and vegetables we either boil basmanti rice (with curry powder in the water) or boil some kind of chinese noodle. sometimes egg noodles, sometimes rice noodles or udon noodles.
Fry in peanut oil, starting with what takes longest which is meat, then onion, garlic and celery and we use ginger powder but fresh is better. then add vegetables after how long they need like broccoli and carrots need longer than mushrooms or peppers.
When everything is fried we add roasted cashews, shrimp and sometimes pinepple chunks. then we add soy sauce and maybe some pineapple juice and then mix in the rice or noodles and serve.
