Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups skin-on red potatoes, thinly sliced
2 cups whole baby carrots, fresh or frozen
2 cups whole green beans, frozen
2 cups whole wax beans, frozen
1 red pepper, thinly sliced
1 green pepper, thinly sliced
2 cups (1 pound) cooked, diced ham or cooked smoked sausage, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup lard or your favorite cooking oil
Paprika, garlic, and pepper to taste

Steps:

Starting with the vegetable that takes the longest to cook (depending on whether you precook the potatoes or carrots), stir-fry everything in the hot oil in a preheated wok or large skillet. Park cooks use lard to make this stir-fry, but vegetable oil is used in the cooking classes. If you want traditional Silver Dollar City taste, stick with lard. In the park, the potatoes are thinly sliced and stir-fried raw, but the cooking class suggests precooking the potatoes and carrots in the microwave oven for faster stir-frying. Frozen vegetables should be thawed.
