It’s a great way to toss together an easy meal without thinking hard. The idea here is that you take three main ingredients, three aromatics, three condiments, and cook. Then you might add three supporting ingredients. [...] […] Whenever I’m trying to get rid of fridge stuff, I think about Barbara Fisher’s effortless Rule of Three.

When the wok gets too hot, pull it off the burner and keep cooking. When it cools down, pop it back on and keep going. With gas, you can turn the heat up and down as needed. Gordon--the series is slow going, but hopefully worth it. And yes, bacon and tofu are great together! Trig--thanks!

My latest favourite flavour combination in spiced firm tofu and bacon for the protein part of the stir fry. Absolutely magic together. Cheers - gordon Hey Barbara,
