When cooking with the wok, use only cooking oil
that is suitable for heating to high temperatures,
such as groundnut oil.

¡

Cook the ingredients at a high heat, while stirring
constantly. Do not cook them for too long. The ve-
getables should be al dente.

¡

For stirring the food and for taking it out of the pan,
it is best to use a shallow ladle with a long handle
made from a heat-resistant material.
