11. Lower the heat to medium hot and add the paprika stripes and after frying for another 2 minutes add the onion rings as well.
12. After another 2 minutes you can add the ginger matchsticks, keep stirring everything and also add the garlic and chili now.
13. After a about 3-4 minutes lower heat a little more, the vegetables should be half done by now but still remain crispy.
