steak to check the cooking result - a firm steak is well done.
5.
Leave the steak on a warm plate for a few minutes; so it will become tender.

STYLE COOKING
:
1.
Choose a wok with a flat base or a big pan.
2.
Prepare all ingredients and the cooking utensils you need. Asian-style cooking
should work fast. If you want to cook a big amount of food, you should divide
the food into several portions.
3.
Preheat the wok/pan briefly and add two tablespoons of oil.
4.
Cook the meat first. Put it aside and keep it warm.
5.
Now cook the vegetable. When the vegetable is hot but still crisp, reduce the
power level. Add the meat and, if desired, a sauce.
6.
Sauté the complete food carefully so all components are hot.
7.
Serve immediately.
