About this Recipe
Stir frying is a Chinese cooking technique that involves frying ingredients in a small amount of very hot oil while stirring or tossing them in a wok. The technique originated in China and has since spread throughout Asia and the Western world. In Western cooking, it is similar to sauteing.
Stir frying and Chinese food have been recommended as both healthy and appealing due to their skillful use of low-fat vegetables, meats, and fish, as well as sauces that are not overly rich, provided calories are kept to a reasonable level.
Are stir-fry vegetables healthy?
Stir-frying is not only quick and easy, but it is also healthy. It produces tender-crisp vegetables that retain more nutrients than boiled vegetables. And, because stir-frying uses so little oil, the fat content is low.
