"Instead of using oil as a base for your stir-fry, consider using flavorful liquids such as vegetable broth, soy sauce, or even water. These alternatives can add moisture and flavor to your dish without the need for oil. You can also experiment with adding a splash of citrus juice or a dash of vinegar for an extra flavor boost."
