Ginger
Along with garlic, fresh ginger is one of the most common stir-fry flavours. How you chop it will determine how it dominates the dish. Finely chopped – best for when you want a subtle ginger flavour.
Finely shredded – best for when you want to add a bit of texture to a sauce.
Finely sliced – best for letting the ginger dominate and adding a big hit of flavour.
