    Organize your ingredients prior to cooking. Clean and chop vegetables, ginger and garlic. Cut meats, poultry or fish into bite-size pieces. Mix sauce or thickening agents.

    Put the wok on the stoveand heat for 1 minute on a high temperature. Add 1 tpsp. oil and heat for 30 seconds. Reduce heat very slightly.

    Add the ingredients in small amounts. Add the meat, poultry or fish first, because that will take the longest to cook. Add vegetables and sauces last, because they cook more quickly.
