  • Stir Fry, which is similar to Sautéing, is an Asian method of quick cooking food in a hot pan with a small amount of fat for a relatively short period of time. The goal being to brown the food while preserving the color, texture and flavor of the individual ingredients.

    There are two techniques — Chao and Bao — that differ in the amount of heat used on the wok, the speed of cooking, and the amount of tossing of the ingredients.

    Both techniques use various seasonings, meats, vegetables, seafood, and staples such as cooking oil, garlic, soy sauce, vinegar, wine, salt, sugar, broth, and cornstarch.

    Because the stir fry is a fast and easy one-dish meal, it has grown in popularity in the United States.
