Best Wok Recipes from Mama Li’s Kitchen: Healthy, Quick and Easy One Pot Meals for Busy Families (Mama Li's Chinese Food Cookbooks) Kindle Edition

There are so many things wrong with this book. First of all the author does nothing to introduce the readers to Chinese and Japanese cooking utensils and knives. The author also does not teach the reader how to make rich stock which is common in oriental cooking. It is all black print on white paper which is extremely boring. Chinese cooking needs live pics of the techniques which are not familiar to most of the American public. The author also does not teach the reader how to make a thickened sauce which is common to Oriental cooking. DEFINITELY NOT RECOMMENDED.The reviewer is a former executive chef and a published author of an award winning book entitled:Sex Education for Adults Secrets to Amazing Sex and Happily Ever After Too.

Follow these for no fail meals for the family or self. If no wok, use a sturdy frypan with rounded sides and a high flame. There's plenty of variety, including vegetarian ones. Of course, put your own spin on these. Jasmine rice is available in convenient packets now. A few snakesif red pepper flakes add flavor. A few fresh shrimp enhance chicken and cashews.

Seeing this book made me ask myself why I hadn't cooked in the wok for a while ... well, I got the book and dusted off the wok and the first meal is going to be Mama Li's Pad Kee Mao.There are a lot of recipes that sound wonderful in this book including beef recipes, chicken recipes, pork recipes and even lamb recipes. My family loves lamb and I debating between the Lamb in Black Bean Sauce and the Curried Lamb with Apple; I'll probably just make them both. There are also very appealing seafood recipes, vegetarian recipes as well as recipes for soups and appetizers.I'm really glad I discovered this book ... it's a keeper!

I like the amount of different recipes it gave u. It only looses a star bc recipes I can find online. I get recipe books bc I like to understand y I'm going what I'm doing which this doesn't tell u.

The recipes in here look easy, sounds delicious, and uses a lot of items I already have in stock. I’m going to try one of the stir fry recipes this week.

I have to admit, I love my wok! I don't have much time to prepare meals but eating healthy food is really important to me, so stir fries and other quick wok recipes are the perfect solution for me. While I already have some basics under my belt, my recipes do tend to taste a bit samey (soy-ginger-sesame), so I got this book to get some new ideas. I really appreciate the easy-to-understand recipes and the nutritional info. I made the Japanese omelettes last night and they were fantastic!

I recently bought a wok, and was seeking to innovate with new recipes. This book helped me go a long way with my wok cooking. I was impressed with the details of cooking techniques, maintenance and even seasoning of wok cooked food. I love making the Steamed Halibut, the Mongolian Beef, the egg fried rice and the basic stir fry. If you have a wok and have been wondering what to do with it, get this book!

I havent used a wok since student days and was delighted when a friend mentioned she always used her wok to cook with, so when I saw this book I thought OK let me see what I'm missing.
