Hello! How can I help you today?<|im_end|>

I'm thinking of cooking stir-fry for dinner, but I've never done it before. What's the best way to heat the pan?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
To heat the pan for stir-frying, use high heat and add a small amount of oil. This helps to quickly cook the ingredients.<|im_end|>

That makes sense. What's the best type of pan to use for stir-frying?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
A wok is ideal for stir-frying, but if you don't have one, a large skillet with a non-stick surface works well too.<|im_end|>

Okay, I think I can manage that. Is it better to cook the vegetables first or the meat?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Typically, cook the meat first until it's browned, then add the vegetables. This helps to prevent the vegetables from becoming overcooked.<|im_end|>
