Stir-Fry Noodle Tips
- High heat, quick hands. A hot wok sears the ingredients without steaming them.
- Prep everything first. Stir-frying moves fast — have sauces and veggies ready to go.
- Do not crowd the pan. Cook in batches so everything gets a proper sear.
- Sauce at the end. Toss the sauce in last so the noodles drink it up without getting soggy.
- Fresh finish. Green onions, sesame seeds and a squeeze of lime make any bowl pop.
