Try this stir fry for cooking flavorful vegetables so you’ll LOVE them!

November 7, 2022 By Eleanor Hoh Leave a Comment

Try this stir fry for cooking flavorful vegetables so you’ll LOVE them! Do you hate vegetables or find them difficult to cook? I get so many emails from Wok Stars who used to hate vegetables till they started using tips from my online class and now enjoy cooking and eating them! They’re so happy their kids or partners devour their veggies and LOVE them‼️ 

See simple cooking process and short video below, you won’t believe how easy it is…

Easy Weeknight Dinner: Grilled Ribs with stir fried broccoli and cauliflower florets.

In Asia, we enjoy eating vegetables with every meal even from a very young age and I’m happy to share how to cook them so you’ll enjoy them too. 

Try this stir fry for cooking flavorful vegetables so you’ll LOVE them!

This stir fry process works especially well with firm stemmed veggies like  gorgeous multi colored cauliflower & broccoli florets. Crunchy on the outside but tender inside! Sprinkling spices at the end of the stir fry gives them a punch of flavor. 

FLAVOR is probably what’s missing and why many don’t enjoy eating vegetables! 

The secret is to FRY first to get crunchy texture and retain bright colors THEN add liquid! NOT the other way round which is what most traditional recipes tell you to do! When you blanche first, the vegetables become soft, lose their brightness and you cannot crisp them up when they are soft.

Check #Wokstarway on Instagram for more wok tips and easy ways to add more FLAVORS, TEXTURES & COLORS to any dish!

STIR FRY PROCESS…

1. Fry with AVOCADO OIL, garlic & ginger on medium high heat in cast iron wok or skillet.

2. Add a little stock or water and “steam fry” with lid on.

3. Add seasonings near the end of cooking time like a little sprinkle of medium sherry or leftover wine, celtic sea salt or San-J tamari and any dry spices or dried herbs you have. Mine were Smoked Picante Paprika, so good.

What a perfect pairing. 

Colorful and a delicious feast!

The pork ribs were seasoned with Madras South Indian Curry, good for grilling meats, stir fried vegetables or sprinkling on salads!

My Wok Star cooking process is simple and easy. When you take my online class, you’ll discover you only need 4 TSPC seasonings. They are sprinkled for marinades, sauces and stir fried vegetables. You don’t need recipes or exact measurements for easy, healthy weeknight dinners.

September 22, 2022 By Eleanor Hoh Leave a Comment

For all my Hispanic friends, I wanted to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month with you. So many of you have taken my cooking class or purchased my WOK STAR KIT over the years. I want to thank you all for believing in my WOK STAR project from day one. Your love of Asian food has helped bring Asian fusion to new heights! So, here’s my version of Picadillo using what I had, the Wok Star Way and it came out DELICIOSO!

I’m so excited I found a way to repost from my Instagram because I can include posts, videos, Reels and add to my blog more frequently. Go ahead and click the blue button, VIEW PROFILE so you’ll see my full Instagram account even if you don’t have an Instagram account.

This Picadillo dish brings back very fond memories of the time Associated Press food editor, J.M. Hirsch who commissioned me to make my version with title,  “Asian techniques meet Hispanic ingredients”, you can see it here. It was syndicated and published all over the world, thanks Jason.

Would love to hear what Hispanic dishes you like making in your wok in comments below?

Enjoy Hispanic Heritage Month, everyone!
