WHAT DOES STIR-FRIES MEAN IN ENGLISH?

stir-fries

Stir frying

Stir frying is a pair of Chinese cooking techniques for preparing food in a wok: chǎo and bào. The term stir-fry was introduced into the English language by Buwei Yang Chao, in her book How to Cook and Eat in Chinese, to describe the chǎo technique. The two techniques differ in their speed of execution, the amount of heat used, and the amount of tossing done to cook the food in the wok. Cantonese restaurant patrons judge a chef's ability to perform stir frying by the "wok hei" produced in the food. This in turn is believed to display their ability to bring out the aroma of the wok and essence of the food cooking.
