Through all these years, we have been enjoying being creative in the kitchen by cooking several recipes for stir frying. We have learned to forget Chinese take-outs, because we can make home stir fries more tasting and suitable to the family.
Home cooking gives us the opportunity to be creative and inventive. How we do it, we pick up some new recipes in the cookery sites of the internet and prepare some alterations to try on new ingredients. We have always managed to improve recipes that we get and turn them into sumptuous dishes for the entire family to savor. We have tried pork, beef, chicken and shrimps in several ways.
In altering a recipe, start with the sauce. The sauce is the main flavoring ingredient in a stir fry. It provides the taste for saltiness, spiciness and sweetness. Sometimes it also add sourness or bitterness if you are inclined to have these distinguishing taste in your dish. Then you can also alter the choice of vegetables. Putting your own choices of vegetables in the stir fry makes the stir fry more homely made and suitable for the family. Familiar veggies that the family always love will be in the dish and will surely provide a sumptuous meal for the whole family.
Here is a pork stir fry recipe that you can try and later alter for your own satisfaction.
