1) What's available?
2) Do you have a pot of steamed rice ready?
3)How do you want it to taste? Shoyu, hot, spicy, what?

Take your protein, meat, seafood, or whatever, slice into chunks, have your sliced garlic, and whatever else that's chunky, like sliced carrots, cabbage stems, the hard stuff... Stir fry them with butter (Organic) and whatever spices you like.
Sage... Pepper... Ginger... Shoyu... Chopped green onion... The veggies...
THEN add the rice if it's cold. IF old, sooner, if fresh, later...
Toss and turn until appetizing... Another dash of shoyu or whatever you're using... It's all in the timing of the hardest to cook to the stuff you add last so as to not overcook.... Don't put in cabbage type stuff until the last minutes...
But you'd be surprised at the things you can use for good health. Kale, for example, is a great eyesight aide. Radishes would surprise you as a great addition for shoyu or miso dishes!
You know you've done right if at the end, the stuff is still a little crunchy and not too soft, yet dripping with your sauce!
And you drool all the way from the stove to the table...
NEVER DO THIS WITHOUT STEAMED BROWN RICE BED!
Send me a serious sample of your portions and I will give you a free tasting test.
No joke!
Don't forget the sake. Warm, but not hot... Or Cabernet S. with cranberry juice 50/50, warmed just right...
A glass of water to wash the fats away.

One I like, and there's no name (there probably is but I just don't know it) is to take about 7 cloves of garlic, depaper them and slice, toss into oil in wok. Take a healthy handful of driedred peppers (not the crushed ones but the whole dried red peppers) and toss in the oil with the garlic. Let this soak for 10 mins. Then turn on the heat high and sitr-fry those two things until the garlic turns slightly tan (you'll get this marvelous aroma). Turn off heat and let that soak while you chop up baby bok choy, napa cabbage, bean sprouts (don't need chopping, just clean), celery, lotus root, bamboo shoots, water chestnuts--whatever other veggies you want (green beans, snap peas, sugar peas, etc.). And finally, slice up some chicken or pork into bite-size strips. Turn the heat back on, toss in the meat and stir fry until it is all white (no pink showing anywhere). Then toss in veggies and toss. It shouldn't take very long since you want to keep the vegs crispy (don't overcook). Toss in a little soy sauce, black pepper (salt to taste). Stir that around quickly to cover all. Last, toss in some green onions sliced into narrow strips. Serve with rice. It's fast and easy (biggest deal is the cleaning and chopping) and it'll be spicy hot. You can leave the garlic and red peppers in (leftovers will get stronger overnight) or you can remove and toss out so no one eats them (I eat a few red peppers when my stomach is queasy). You can skip the meat if you want. You can use tofu (in any of it's various forms) if you want.

I like to stir fry shrimp with Chinese pea pods, water chestnuts and whatever veggies you like. Get a stir fry sauce from your market and lightly glaze meat and veggies. Serve with white rice and egg rolls. Good meal.

Beef with broccoli is very simple but tastes great. Just saute the tenderloin strips in garlic and onions. Add a little oyster sauce. Add broccoli last. Serve with steamed rice. Yum!
