Electric Wok Recipes

These sites will assist you in making the finest in Chinese and Thai cuisine

It could be the name that makes electric woks so popular. Chefs writing about electric wok recipes seem unable to resist phrases like "wok on the wild side," even though we're sure Lou Reed wasn't thinking about Asian cooking when he penned that tune. We prefer to think that woks are popular because they're so useful. If you're looking for electric wok recipes, we feel these sites will provide you with some of the best.

BangkokCuisine.com

The word "wok" is actually Cantonese, but if you use your wok like they do in Bangkok , you'll be making great Thai food as well. BangkokCuisine.com is actually the website for a Thai restaurant in Naples (that's Naples, Florida, not Naples in Italy), but they also feature a quick list of Thai electric wok recipes you can make at home as well as a handy feature on how to wok like a pro.

As for their electric wok recipes, we recommend the Chicken Panang Curry.

RecipeLand.com

And here you always thought that Recipe Land was just a magical and secret place in your heart. Sorry to disappoint, but RecipeLand.com is actually a very utilitarian recipe search engine site with over 50,000 recipes, including a section for woks (you can find those by entering "wok" in the Find Recipes search bar).

There are over two dozen electric wok recipes featured at RecipeLand.com, including wined chicken in deluxe gravy, deep fried shrimp balls, and chicken almond guy din. The site is a little advertising heavy, but the electric wok recipes are useful.

This site is a loving tribute to Colonel Ian Khuntilanont-Philpott, the man behind the Thailand Food Pages, and his wife Muoi, a professional chef. Dozens of authentic Thai recipes are displayed, many of which would be suitable for electric woks.

The informal feel of Chet Bacon's site is very appealing. Some recipes, such as the one for khao man kai (chicken and rice), feature rambling and informative introductions about Thai culture and food preparation. We definitely recommend checking out this site if you're looking for authentic electric wok recipes.

FamilyWok.com

If you think electric woks are great for preparing Chinese food for your whole family, the man behind FamilyWok.com agrees. FamilyWok.com was set up by a single father of four boys and features a large number of electric wok recipes broken down into categories for appetizers, beef, chicken, pork, and more.

The electric wok recipes at FamilyWok.com are simple and easy to follow, and you already know they're family tested. The sections on sauces and soups are also a helpful addition to standard electric wok recipes.
