Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Stir-frying is one of the quickest and easiest ways to cook, and one of the healthiest. It uses little oil and retains more nutrients than many other methods. It also requires very little equipment—all you need is a wok, a knife, and a chopping board.

Learning what separates a good stir-fry from a great one, however, is not always so easy to master. Indeed, it is all about timing, knowing when to add what, and how to get the best out of each ingredient. With tips on everything from controlling the heat to using the right oil, bestselling author Ching-He Huang has gathered together a collection of delicious dishes in Stir Crazy, simple enough for everyday cooking and designed with nutrition, taste, and affordability in mind.

Many recipes are gluten and dairy-free, as well as suitable for vegans and vegetarians, and include both Asian and Western ingredients readily available in any supermarket. So, whether or not you eat meat, love carbs, or prefer to avoid them, want something special, or find yourself having to feed your family, Stir Crazy will do the trick.
