- Add the vegetables and stir fry for a further 2-3 mins.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of meat: For stir-fries, tender cuts of meat are best, such as flank steak, sirloin, or chicken breast. These cuts will cook quickly and evenly.
- Marinate the meat: Marinating the meat in a flavorful sauce or marinade before cooking will help to tenderize it and add flavor.
- Use a hot wok or skillet: A hot wok or skillet is essential for stir-fries. This will help to sear the meat and vegetables and prevent them from sticking.
- Cook the meat in small batches: Don't overcrowd the wok or skillet, or the meat will not cook evenly. Cook the meat in small batches, removing it from the wok or skillet when it is cooked through.
- Add the vegetables: Once the meat is cooked, add the vegetables to the wok or skillet. Cook the vegetables until they are tender-crisp, stirring constantly.
- Add the sauce: Stir in the sauce and cook for a few minutes, until the sauce has thickened and the flavors have melded.
- Serve immediately: Stir-fries are best served immediately, while they are still hot and fresh.
Conclusion:
Stir-fries are a quick, easy, and delicious way to enjoy a healthy and flavorful meal. By following these tips, you can create delicious stir-fries that your family and friends will love.
