Leung Tim Wok Iron Flat 14 inch (35cm) Handle - 909064

This wok must first be seasoned before you can use it.

A traditional wok has a round base, which distributes the heat optimally during cooking. If you want to use a wok with a round base, you will need a wok ring or a wok burner on your stove. We also sell wok rings.

Most kitchens do not have a wok burner as standard, but there are also woks with a flat bottom.

Usually these woks require more maintenance, however you can use this wok for up to 10 years or longer if you maintain it properly. It is also a cheap purchase wok and quite light in weight compared to other woks. Sheet steel woks do not have a solid non-stick layer and will give your food a metallic taste without treatment. Furthermore, rust formation will develop if it is not properly pre-treated and maintained. Therefore, it is wise to season by frying a little oil; this will give you a natural non-stick layer in the wok. The wok also becomes blacker the more you use it, which means that is a good sign for the maintenance and non-stick layer. After cleaning the wok, grease the wok with a little oil so that it is properly maintained.
