3. Which Vegetable is Ideal for the Vegetable Pan?

You can prepare almost any vegetable in the pan or in the wok, the decisive factor is the cooking time.

Green beans taste super delicious in a vegetable pan, but they have to be cooked in boiling salted water by a free swimmer beforehand, so that the bean is soft and edible.

For the vegetable pan I use some sugar peppers, red – yellow – green peppers, garlic, white cabbage, carrot.

Alternatively you can add Chinese cabbage, blanched broccoli or cauliflower, blanched green beans (in Austria these are called “Fisolen”) and onions.

4. Take Care of Hard and Soft Vegetables

Carrots are relatively hard vegetables and require a longer cooking time.

Peppers, on the other hand, are a relatively soft vegetable, which means they cook faster.

For this reason, carrots are usually cut into thin strips or sticks for the vegetable pan, because it has to go fast.

Professional chefs call this type of cut “Julienne”.

Peppers, on the other hand, may be cut into pieces and cooked in the pan.

I prefer the preparation in the pan, here is more hot surface for frying and keeping warm than in the wok. In addition, I think that most woks do not reach the desired heat on a normal hob.

If the frying pan or wok is too cold, the vegetables boil after a few minutes and the desired taste effect, which occurs during frying, does not occur.

The vegetable pan on the plate looks colourful…
