About this event

  • 2 hours 30 minutes

Stir-frying is the most fundamental cooking technique in Chinese cuisine, but like with most anything, one needs to understand the traditions, tools and techniques for the best result. Most stir-fry dishes contain protein and vegetables that when ladled over plain white rice create a perfectly simple, balanced one-dish meal. In this demonstration class Kian Lam Kho will share the process and recipes for three classic examples of stir-fry which will be enjoyed after the class. Once you understand the technique you will be able to create an infinite variety of stir-fry dishes to enjoy regularly with family and friends.

Menu to include:

  • Stir-Fried Beef with Black Pepper
  • Kung Pao Chicken
  • Stir-Fried Pea Shoots

This demonstration class (and lunch!) is limited to just ten people.
