Stir-frying is a culinary technique
that has been traced back to China more than 2,000 years ago.
The method involves quickly cooking a combination of ingredients in a hot wok or pan with high heat and minimal oil, to ensure that the natural flavors and nutrients of the food are preserved. This technique soon gained popularity throughout Asia and later became popular globally, making it a go-to cooking method for those who are seeking quick, easy, and healthy meals.
Beef & Vegetables Stir Fry is a more modern take on the traditional stir-fry dish. It’s believed to have originated in the United States in the 1940s and 1950s when Chinese cuisine began to gain popularity.
