Kung Pao Chicken (Is food porn still allowed?)

I tried a recipe for Kung Pao Chicken from the book, Breath Of A Wok, and it was outstanding.
The raws
To me the trick to stir fry is to pre-measure the ingredients, then place them in the order that they will be added. Also, if you are not totally familiar with the recipe, have a cheat sheet in large font next to you.

Plated

Really disappointed in you man. Have to put you up for a WTF. :laugh:
Nice looking cook.

Just kidding with you Gary, I figured your blood pressure needed a little boost.
The food looks great. -
Steve,
Why are you WTF'ing me? I've never WTF'd you, and all I did was post a porn thread. WTF is this forum for, anyway?
I don't know WTF is going on here. :ohmy:__________________________________________Dripping Springs, Texas.Just west of Austintatious -
Is there a wok for the medium or do I have to use a cast iron skillet? Do you close the lid for this dish? Looks terrific.

I bought a 16 in. from the wok shop. Wok cooks are usually done with the top open, they are very quick cooks.Molly

Thanks Patty. I use my wok on a large BGE with a spider. I think there are setups for the medium, but hopefully, somebody else will chime in.
No, I wok with the dome up and the temperature VERY high. The cook goes extremely fast and you are normally stirring it with a long handled spatula so your arms don't get burned.__________________________________________Dripping Springs, Texas.Just west of Austintatious -
I was too lazy to cook tonight, so we had chinese out. Kung Pao is my fav, and tonight I went for the shrimp. Wish I had just found myself at your table. Yours looks way better than what I had, and it wasn't bad at all.

Outstanding! My next purchase will be a grate extender with spider so I can stirfry
-
Maybe WTF means Wok The Food! Yea right/

Thanks, Steve. You know I was kidding. :laugh:__________________________________________Dripping Springs, Texas.Just west of Austintatious

Good. I'm not ready to cut the handles off my cast iron skillets. I don't have the skillets with the little handle on the opposite side to lift it with the "stump".

Thanks Renee. I can't remember the last time I went out for Chinese. It's so much better on the Egg.__________________________________________Dripping Springs, Texas.Just west of Austintatious

Think the wok as $20ish with great customer service and wok passion.Molly

1) No. It's an Italian marble Lazy Susan
2) I'm afraid not. We're spending megabucks on rebuilding our garage, and are watching our spending very closely for the foreseeable future. Thanks for asking, though.__________________________________________Dripping Springs, Texas.Just west of Austintatious
