# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It turns leftover rice into something better than the original meal.
  • Everything cooks fast and hot, so youre eating in under half an hour.
  • The beef stays tender and the vegetables keep their snap.
  • One pan means less cleanup and more time at the table.
02 -
  • Cold rice is non negotiable, warm rice clumps and turns mushy no matter how hard you stir.
  • Get your wok screaming hot before you add anything or the beef will steam instead of sear.
  • Do not walk away once you start cooking, high heat means everything moves fast.
03 -
  • Spread your cooked rice on a tray and chill it uncovered for an hour if you do not have day old rice.
  • Use the highest heat your stove can manage and work in batches if your pan is not big enough, crowding kills the sear.
  • Taste your soy and oyster sauces before you add them, some brands are saltier than others.
