How to Use Sambalin Your Stir-Fries
Chef Yossie's professional technique for perfect results
The Professional Method:
Heat Your Wok/Pan First
Get your pan smoking hot before adding oil. This is crucial for proper stir-frying.
Add Sambal Early
Add 1-2 teaspoons of sambal right after your aromatics (garlic, ginger). Let it bloom for 30 seconds.
Add Proteins & Vegetables
The sambal will coat everything evenly, creating a beautiful red color and even heat distribution.
Finish & Taste
Add a splash of soy sauce or oyster sauce. Taste and adjust - you can always add more sambal!
Chef Yossie's Pro Tip:
"Start with less than you think you need. Sambal's heat builds as it cooks, and you can always add more. The goal is balanced heat that enhances, not overwhelms."
