Wikipedia: Wok
A wok (Chinese: 鑊; Pinyin: huò; Cantonese wohk) is a deep round-bottomed cooking pan from China. It is common in China and similar pans are found in parts of East, South and Southeast Asia, as well as being popular in other parts of the world.
Woks are used in a range of Chinese cooking techniques, including stir frying, steaming, pan frying, deep frying, poaching, boiling, braising, searing, stewing, making soup, smoking and roasting nuts.
