Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: The fresher and better quality the ingredients, the tastier your stir-fry will be. Choose tender cuts of steak, succulent shrimp, and crisp vegetables.
- Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak in a flavorful mixture of soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil helps tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor.
- Cook the steak in batches: To prevent overcrowding the pan and ensure even cooking, cook the steak in batches. This will help maintain its tenderness and prevent it from becoming tough.
- Use a well-seasoned wok: A well-seasoned wok distributes heat evenly and prevents food from sticking. If you don't have a wok, you can use a large skillet or sauté pan.
- Cook the vegetables just until tender: Overcooked vegetables will lose their vibrant color and crisp texture. Aim to cook them until they are tender but still slightly crunchy.
- Add the sauce at the end: Adding the sauce towards the end of the cooking process prevents it from burning and ensures that the flavors remain bright and distinct.
