Tips/Tricks
- The key to cooking a stir-fry correctly is speed – make sure your pan is smoking hot as you start, keep the food moving and don’t crowd the pan at the start or else it will drop the temperature down
- I used ½ tsp chili flakes in my sauce – I like a bite but not too much spice
- The garnishes ARE optional but the texture the nuts & crispy shallots bring make it feel way more authentic
