Frying and stirring ‘Tweaks’

Frying and stirring is one of the most fun loving job that a new learner can do in the kitchen. Though, seems quite simple it could be really complicated. It faster and very simple once you get the hang of it. The fun part of the whole exercise is that you can mix as many ingredients as you want. It’s a mathematical exercise, where you add, subtract ingredients as per the choice of the people eating the meal. In case of more vegetarian add extra vegetables and subtract the non vegetarians dishes. Even if u forget to add or subtract in the fry and stir way, the result is never very disastrous, there is a scope of good taste because every way is a new way. But this method of cooking is also not all that simple as it may seem. It comprises buying different kinds of ingredients and utensils etc.

The first experience that I had of stir and fry is a memorable one. The result was kind of a Chinese tasting dish but the satisfaction and the pleasure that I derived was immense. Rare are the events when I actually stir and fry but most of the techniques have been learnt from a Chinese friend Li-Huang.

She does it almost everyday and meals that she serve her family generally are inclusive of the non vegetarians dishes along with three to four stir-fry dishes. According to her the start is always with cleanliness and neatness.

So the process begins with hygienic environment. Cutting board along with the knife are washed and cleansed properly. Essentials also include pan and fresh ingredients in abundance. She is very particular about accuracy and cleanliness. Food is something one cannot compromise with. Unlike of what I do her cooking is preceded by the cutting.
