Notes

Reminders:
  • Wash the meat with water before cutting, then absorb excess water from the meat using kitchen towels.
  • Cook the stir-fried meat on medium to medium-high heat. When adding other ingredients, lower the heat of the stove first to prevent burning. Increase the heat again after adding the ingredient to maintain cooking temperature.
  • During the 20 minutes of simmering, open the lid occasionally and give the meat a few stir.
These steps should help ensure that your stir-fried meat turns out delicious and well-cooked without burning.
