4. Turn the steak only once during cooking. The exact cooking time will
depend on the thickness of the steak and how cooked you want it.
Times may vary from about 2 – 8 minutes per side. Press the steak to
gauge how cooked it is – the firmer it feels the more ‘well done’ it will
be.
5. Leave the steak to rest on a warm plate for a few minutes to allow it
to relax and become tender before serving.
For stir-frying
1. Choose an induction compatible flat-based wok or a large frying pan.
2. Have all the ingredients and equipment ready. Stir-frying should be
quick. If cooking large quantities, cook the food in several smaller
batches.
3. Preheat the pan briefly and add two tablespoons of oil.
4. Cook any meat first, put it aside and keep warm.
5. Stir-fry the vegetables. When they are hot but still crisp, turn the
cooking zone to a lower setting, return the meat to the pan and add
your sauce.
6. Stir the ingredients gently to make sure they are heated through.
7. Serve immediately
