What do you Wok?
How often do you use it?
Comments
-
Twice a week.
Cook times usually less than 5 minutes.
Great food even better leftovers.
Lots of resources say that cooking at such a high heat (higher than say sauteeing) seals in nutrients and makes it healthier. Very little oil used.
I like pepper steak and kung pao chicken but really any proteins and veggies sliced correctly will be delicious

Oh my bad, I usually try to walk hills. :PJust a hack that makes some $hitty BBQ....

I walk hills too. When it's warm out, I walk with my crockpot out. The weight is very good exercise and I have no other use for it normally.

I ended up tossing my wok for my large as I did not like to wok or ever use it. But when I got the Mini wok I fry fish, shrimp, oysters, onion rings etc. I wok the asian stuff. Have used it for fajitas.
Just saying with the 10" I use it all the time for lots of things

Any veggies, and meat you like. Add seasoning you like and a sauce if you want. It is all good in a wok.

stir-fries, buttered shrimp for pasta, been making scrambled eggs and bacon everyday since last monday in one, curry dishes with coconut milk, small deep frying, bulgogi beef. best thing for a wok is to use it, doesnt need to be just for stirfrying. i have mine in a wok burner on the stove' very easy to clean once its good and seasoned

My woks are just used like big frying pans/skillets. Started with asian foods, but now we use them for fajitas, chicken divan, etc...Use them maybe once or twice each week. SWMBO uses one for steaming when we are feeding the "family army".Delta B.C. - Whiskey and steak, because no good story ever started with someone having a salad!
-
Just did Thai curry mussels, lovely jubbly.
-
Primarily, Asian foods. But, anything that calls for being sauteed is a possibility. Probably, other than Asian, I use it most for shallow pan frying and scrambled eggs, such as migas. I never cook anything with tomatoes in it because the acid is not good for the finish.__________________________________________Dripping Springs, Texas.Just west of Austintatious

how about asian steak and cheese. things are really simple to flip in a round bottom pan with a round bottom wok shovel, easier than chasing things around in a frypan

You might get some ideas from this video I put together.

I, too like the speed of the cooks. Also, since you wok with the Egg lid open, you don't have to wait for the "bad smoke" to go away. We use it about once a week. Tonight we're doing our first Fried Rice and Shrimp (using VI's recipe he posted recently). There is such a wide variety of meals and recipes for a wok that the possibilities are endless. For example, @fishlessman's Asian Steak and Cheese. That looks fantastic!

Are there any good Non-Asian (No Soy or ginger) type cooks recipes for the Wok?

Sure - for example, omit the fish sauce in this one and there's nothing Asian about it. Very delicious.

i did a stirfry today of sliced pork, sprouts, mushrooms and celery that used 50/50 lite soy and lime juice, it cuts way back on the salt. it had some broth jello added from my vinegar porkbutt cook the other day that had some good flavor added. im sure the lime juice would have worked fine and i added a little sesame oil at the end that really boosts the flavor. the steak and cheese i posted had soy and fish sauce in it, you could omit that
going salt free or just dont like soy, the flavor profile of soy and lime jumps out at you and the salt is cut way back

I usually do the Singapore street noodle (mei fun) with chicken and shrimp, bamboo shoots, baby corn and water chestnuts, with a side of mongolian beef on the wok. All spicy as hell with sriracha and sambal olek.
Yummy.

@Doc_Eggerton, what is that underneath the Wok?
-
You mean the last pic, where we're serving? When I take the wok off the heat I usually put it on the cold LBGE. What you are seeing is the ring intended to hold the wok if you're cooking on a stove. I use it as a stand to keep things stable.

@Dog_eggerton, the thing in the first picture the Wok is sitting on, it seems to reduce the amount of lump you use?
-
So far I have cooked fajitas and fish tacos in my wok if you are looking for non asian. I don't have pics cause it cooks so darn fast and I am not that talented with a camera.
