Notes
- Stir fried dishes come together really quick, so it is crucial to prep all the ingredients in advance, otherwise there is little time for chopping / grabbing ingredients in between the cooking steps.
- Cooking it at a high heat ensures that the ingredients keep their shape and colour well, and it's as nutritious as it can be.
