Vegetables

Perhaps no other food is more associated with the wok than vegetables. In fact, stir fried vegetables are almost synonymous with the wok.

The idea of stir-frying vegetables is what generated the initial popularity of the wok in the West more than 20 years ago. In those early days of overcooked, boiled, soggy, bland vegetables, the idea of stir-fried vegetables full of colour, favour and crunchiness came as a revelation. The wok took home kitchens by storm and many adults and children discovered how wonderful fresh vegetables could taste for the first time.
