13. I cook everything for 5 or 6 minutes, stirring, of course.
14. Then I pull everything up on the sides of the wok and pour the sauce in the center, stirring the sauce until thickened.
15. Then I stir everything together for a minute or two.
16. It’s done.
17. I use high on my stove when cooking with my wok on a fire-ring.
