Stir-fries are quick and easy to make - just the thing for a midweek meal. Once prepared you will have a beautiful, fresh, chicken, prawn or vegetable stir-fry in a matter of minutes, or maybe try Crispy Beef Stir-fry to make a little meat go a long way. Fish and shellfish lovers are not left out, with Steamed Trout with Ginger and Deep-fried or Tempura Prawns. Of course, a popular accompaniment is rice and you can find out how to cook it perfectly every single time with Delia's foolproof method, and her recipe for Chinese Stir-fried Rice in our Online Cookery School
