How to Make Perfect Stir Fry | You Can Cook That | Allrecipes

[@bonniebartlow5631]

I’m 75 years old and have wanted to cook stir fry a long time, now I can cook stir fry at home. For me. Thank you a lot.🎉❤

[@seanpatrickroaney2764]

Listen up, all you KZbin wannabe Rachel Ray and Gordon Ramsay aspirants: THIS is how you make a proper cooking video. No annoying boom- boom music. No precious, dreamy shots of a potato behind silk and with a sunset behind it. No single 5 minute shots of the cook beating an egg. Good use of pacing, everything progresses briskly but not too fast, and you credit your viewers wih some intelligence by assuming we have a basic set of skills and common sense. So if you say, add some chopped veggies, I don't get all confused unless I see 13 minutes of you chopping a carrot. Well done all around. Thanks for posting this. I can't wait to try it, it looks delicious. I'm looking forward to your next video.

I agree totally, my mind wasn't boggled down with superfluous nonsense and preachiness. I like this gal and how simplified and non intimidating she made start with the four basics. The pantry things are easy enough to always have on hand as well. If this works for me I might even buy a Wok since a friend had said it's his one pot and he even makes his eggs in it. 🤣

[@AshkenaziChristian]

Just a small suggestion. Whenever you cook rice, dice a carrot then add it to the the water after you've added the rice. That way both the rice and carrots are done cooking at the same time. Too, if you use the rice as a side dish later, it has nice color and some nutrition in it as well. I forgot to add in my original post to dice the carrots according to how long your rice cooks. For example, the jasmine rice I use cooks in 12 minutes, so I use a small dice which can cook in 12 minutes, PLUS the time left in the pot. Therefore, if you're cooking a long grain rice requiring 25-30+ minutes to cook and steam in the pot afterwards, you want to cut a larger dice, as you don't want your carrots mushy. Doing it a few times informs you how small/big the carrots have to be in order to be cooked to the right point with the rice. Sorry so wordy.

[@georgeibarra8180]

Eating mine right now. Chicken, broccoli, halved button mushrooms, half rounds of zucchini, sliced yellow onion, 2-inch long pieces of green onion, yellow bell pepper, sliced water chestnuts, fresh grated ginger and fresh pressed garlic. Didn't have brown sugar so I used honey. Served it over rice. Topped it with a sprinkling of toasted sesame seeds. I made enough for a big serving size for myself, so I have plenty of leftover sauce to use for at least 2 or 3 more quick & easy stir frys. The recipe for your sauce rocks and I'm taping it to my fridge. LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!

I have never tried stirfry because it looks so complicated and I dreaded to even try! However this lady was fantastic; no EXCESSIVE extra talking no MUSIC; just right down to the basics! The fact that she divided it into increments was exactly what I needed. I’m not stupid; I just simply don’t like a complicated recipe. This was fantastic! I always have leftovers that I never know what to with snd just eat them separately! ! This is a perfect answer!

You make it look easy! I'm 82 and started doing my own cooking a couple of years ago. My stir-fry effort uses frozen goods but that gets kinda old. I want to get into a stir-fry with fresh ingredients and my own beef using that velvet method of tenderizing. The whole cooking thing is looking pretty easy as you just demonstrated. The first step for me is cooking rice on the stovetop. Thx to KZbin, even that looks easy. I'm about to air-dry some wings in my table top oven which has a large mesh basket for air-frying.

[@kickcg]

Made this tonight…definitely a once a week meal and wow super easy!! Thank you!!!

[@larrydean2626]

Great technique! Cooking the ingredients separately and then combining them with the sauce eliminates the drabness that comes with stir-frying everything all together at once. So much better. This is the way I learned to stir-fry while I was living in Taiwan.

So, tonight...like in the next 5 minutes, Im prepping for stir fry night AGAIN! It will be beef this time (top sirloin pieces) and it will have an asian flare...just added a tsp of sesame oil to the sauce and a few cloves of microplanned garlic as an addition to your recipe. Its such an awesome way to cut down on meat portions and INCREASE vege portions. I love that part. Gonna serve this one on thin ramen noodles .

I love stir-fry and have been cooking in a great carbon steel wok for 40 years. So I recommend buying one as they last forever and just get better seasoned as you use it. I buy veggies and chop and freeze so I can always grab and stir fry easily. I buy a piece of ginger, peel with a grapefruit spoon and freeze. Then just use a microphone to grate into the wok. It tastes so much better than dry. Use peanut oil for best flavor.
