Little of Everything Stir Fry
Recipe Rating
Tricking the Tongue.
Some folks like to cook with one or two flavors in mind. They want the tongue to savor a specific flavor sensation, indulge it, relish it. Maybe they want to make curry chicken, or lemon pepper fish. This is fine. It's a great way to appreciate one food flavor. I don't generally like to cook this way.. I find it boring. I like to trick and surprise the tongue. What is it in the recipe that's creating the flavor I'm enjoying? What might I find next? Will the next bite be sweet or spicy, bitter or indescribably flavorful?
This likely goes against every rule in culinary school. I wouldn't know. I didn't go to culinary school. I learned to cook by using my gut and experimentation. This recipe was once an experiment.
This recipe combines many Asian flavors into one dish. It's fairly simple to cook and so full of flavor. it's also very adaptable. You can easily substitute one ingredient for another. it's also best if prepared in a wok.
