  • Yep...hoopla!

  • Hey guys, what's up? It's Alex. So, ah, today I want to

  • make a very special episode, about Stir-Fry.

  • To me, doing the Stir-Fry is the easy part.

  • The most complicated thing is to come up

  • with a Stir-Fry idea.

  • Let me give you just a bit more context.

  • Like making a big dish, a show-stopper dish on the week-end

  • is nothing complicated. You have time to make it.

  • You have time to come up with an idea. I think it's fine. But on the other hand making a new dish

  • every night. Trying to keep people excited around the table,

  • trying to come up with new ideas.

  • This is hard. Unless of course you get some help from the French Guy.

  • So with my own little hands and my rusty old mind, I did this.

  • So it's a webpage, hosted on my website, I'll show the link in the description box down below.

  • Basically, every time you're lacking, or running short of an idea for dinner, you just go to my page,

  • and you generate the Stir-Fry.

  • In its current state, my Stir-Fry Generator can output about 4,800 different Stir-Fry recipes.

  • Which means for the next 18 years, 18 years, you could be eating a different Stir-Fry every night of the week.

  • Isn't that cool?

  • I'm going to take 4 ideas from this Stir-Fry Generator, and we're going to cook them together.

  • First one.

  • Let me just screen grab this.

  • Second one. No, no, no.

  • You saw nothing.

  • That's a good one.

  • Ok, so now I've got 4 good Stir-Fry ideas. Let's just go and get the ingredients right now.

  • So I couldn't find no basil, neither cauliflower, so I just

  • swapped those ingredients for coriander and broccoli.

  • But, I mean, it's real live cooking, so whenever you are running

  • short of an ingredient, or missing another one,

  • just swap it and move on.

  • That's what I did.

  • So I've got four plates,

  • each one is going to gather all the ingredients,

  • for that specific Stir-Fry.

  • To go with all those Stir-Fry's I made an all

  • around sauce, it's a very basic sauce

  • that just balances the acidity, the sweetness, the saltiness,

  • but you can pin this with spices

  • or with more and more ingredients.

  • This is how you make it.

  • Use a good measure of soy sauce,

  • a touch of sriracha,

  • a good amount of vegetable stock,

  • a drizzle of vinegar, a grating of ginger, a grating of garlic.

  • Then you will add a table spoon of corn starch

  • Diluted in a small glass of water,

  • some neutral oil to make it shine

  • A few drops of sesame oil just for the flavor.

  • Two-three table spoons of sugar.

  • Then you want to taste it and adjust,

  • Before I give it a taste, you just want to remember that you are looking for: salt, sweet, bitter, acidity.

  • Salt, sweet, acidity.

  • No bitterness

  • Perfect.

  • So in this Stir-Fry video of course we are going to use my crazy space wok range machine.

  • I just performed a few tests and everything seems to be running perfectly now

  • Recipes

  • To me a Stir-Fry should always be a simple dish. So, here are my cheats on it to cook it super fast

  • Cook each ingredient separately until almost cooked

  • At the end drop everything in

  • Add a dash of sauce

  • and toss it. serve immediately

  • I just realized that

  • this Stir-Fry- the chicken and onion and almond stir-fry is missing

  • anything solid

  • I've got those really solid pasta leftovers

  • and I'm just going to add them to the stir-fry

  • Once again that's it. I hope you enjoyed this stir-fry episode

  • Please give it a big thumbs up

  • and shout-out over all your social media. You know how we work. Use the hashtag #Spreaditlikebutter

  • and don't forget to tag me of course.

  • And you can share the webpage the stir-fry generator so that your friends, your family

  • the people you care for don't feel miserable

  • on the weeknight.

  • A special thank you to my patrons out there for supporting me financially

  • I've got something special for you.

  • It's about life. It's about private cooking sessions

  • and it's coming very soon

  • About using completely insane and absolutely

  • unsafe contraptions.

  • As always, guys, stay curious

  • Enjoy. Take care. bye-bye. Salut!

Yep...hoopla!
