Cooking guidelines

Using a wok

13US CA

Important!

Use your wok only on the wok burner.

When using a wok, always use the wok stand.

Make sure the wok stand is fitted correctly over the raised pan supports. (see Fig.2)

Do not use a wok larger than 16” (40 cm) diameter. Check that your wok is adequately supported by the wok stand.

Make sure the wok does not push any other pans aside. This could make them unstable, or deflect heat onto nearby walls or the countertop.

For stir-frying

1Have all the ingredients and equipment ready. Stir-frying should be quick. If cooking large quantities, cook the food several smaller batches.

2Preheat the wok for a minute or so with the burner turned up high enough to heat the sides of the wok. (If your wok is small or thin-based, this may not be the highest setting on the burner.)

3Drizzle two tablespoons of oil around the sides of the hot wok, allowing it to run down into the base.

4Cook any meat first, put it aside and keep warm.

5Stir-fry the vegetables. When they are hot but still crisp, turn the burner to low, return the meat to the wok and add your sauce.

6Stir the ingredients gently to make sure they are heated through.

7 Serve immediately.
