Woks

While a fry pan is useful for shallow frying and grilling meat, a wok can be used for not only stir frys, but also boiling, frying, steaming and smoking. Both are fantastic additions to any cookware collection. Cook up a storm using these essential pieces, and get what’s best for you with our buyer’s guide.

Finding the Right Fry Pan or Wok:

  1. Do you use an electric or gas stove? With its flat bottom and round surface, a wok is better suited to the open flame of the gas stove, while a fry pan works with either type of heat source.
  2. Which pan gets the job done faster? Because of its curved shape, a wok heats up quickly and browns food more evenly. It also has high walls, making it easier to mix and toss food.
  3. On a health kick? A wok requires less oil to effectively cook food, which is great for cooking nutritious meats and veggies.
  4. Most fry pans and woks are made from highly durable, non-stick materials like aluminium and stainless steel, though a wok is much lighter compared to a fry pan.
  5. Fry pans and woks handle food in different ways. With a wok, you have to constantly stir food because it burns easily, while a fry pan can be left at longer intervals. A fry pan also works best with soft foods and for searing meats.
  6. Not the most confident cook or rather stick to the basics? A fry pan is safer and easier to handle, and can heat up quickly. You can also pop it straight into the sink when you’re done.
  7. Fry pans come in all shapes and sizes. Cooking an egg? Use a mini fry pan! Grilling meat? Try a square grill pan. The possibilities are endless!
  8. Make sure your wok or fry pan is not too hard to handle. Your fry pan should come equipped with a strong wooden, plastic or silicon handle, which stays cool amidst the heat. A wok with two handles, meanwhile, will be much easier to carry from the stove to the table without getting burnt.
  9. Why not go electric? An electric wok or fry pan can provide fast, even heat and better temperature control while you cook, resulting in more consistent cooking. These are perfect for smaller kitchens and for entertaining friends and family with fabulous weekend meals. The choice is yours: wok or frypan, you can’t go wrong!
