Love your outdoor space
Revitalising your outdoor space
Step up your outdoor cooking game with the Hot Wok Gas Stove! This wonderful portable cast iron stove gives you the opportunity to prepare delicious dishes in the comfort of your outdoor space, or even on trips into the wilderness. There's nothing quite as satisfying as serving up a piping hot plate of stir-fried vegetables with the added taste you can only get from cooking over powerful heat.
Here are some reasons why the Hot Wok would be fantastic to have, or gift to loved ones:
• Cooking with a higher heat gives you the added unique taste of 'wok hei'
• It's quick to fire up and get cooking
• Impress your guests by cooking table-side
• The stove and accessories are easy to clean and maintain
• It's so versatile you can cook all types of dishes
Wok hei (pronounced 'wok hay') is a Cantonese term that describes the flavour that comes from cooking in a wok pan. There is a combination of intense heat that caramelises the sugars found in your ingredients, smoking oil, and something known as a 'maillard reaction'. This reaction can only occur through high heat, and gives the browning of food a distinctive flavour.
Add all of those chemical reactions together to add that charred, smoky flavour found in Asian cuisine.
Since wok hei, or 'breath of a wok', can only be added to your dishes through searing heat, this is where the Hot Wok is the best at-home tool you can have over your cooker top when wanting to cook professional stir-frys, or even fried rice.

While you've decided a Hot Wok would be perfect for you, or loved ones: which is the right one to order? The two differences between these stoves is the 7kW has 4 legs, and the 12kW has 3 legs making it slightly taller.The other difference is there is 5kW of power between them. This will slightly change the unique heating effect it will have on your dishes.Both are perfect for when you want to grill your food rather than boil, and will add the 'wok hei' flavour you can only get from high gas heat. We recommend the Original 7kW Gas Stove when cooking for smaller groups of 2-4. With the three valves available, you have full control of the heat, meaning you can have beautifully fried meats and/or vegetables. This may be the preferred option if you will be taking it around camping and are planning to hike with it. The 12kW Gas Stove is what we would recommend if you wanted to add to your outdoor kitchen set up. The 3 brass valves are slightly wider on the inside, compared to the 7kW, to accommodate the 12kW power, and the added heat makes it a little more versatile than the 7kW if you want to do more outside of grilling or frying. For example, if you needed to heat up a large pot of water or soup very quickly, or even start a microbrewery. The 7kW Gas Stove can do the same, however will take a little longer as it needs to catch up to the power of the 12kW Gas Stove. It is also ideal when cooking for larger groups of 4 or more as the higher heat can spread across a larger pan. You can always turn the 12kW stove down to the same temperature the 7kW reaches if it is too hot, however you can never turn the 7kW up. Whichever stove you choose, the portability of both stoves means you can cook right in front of your guests as they enjoy the outdoor ambience.

• Cast Iron Stove With cast iron there is always the chance you will encounter rust. This can come from old grease stains, or just the weather in general if your cast iron has been left outside for a prolonged period. If you do find rust on your cast iron stove, don't worry: it will not affect the functionality. Treat your cast iron stove by wiping sunflower oil, peanut oil, or the oil you normally use for cooking, all around your stove. Wait 5-10 minutes and wipe off with clean kitchen paper, and your stove should be shiny again, without being oily. If there are still traces of oil, use a little more clean kitchen paper until the stove is no longer greasy. If you find rust on your cast iron stove, use oil to clean. Alongside this, we recommend storing your cast iron stove in a dry room or shed. • Wok Pan One of the most useful tools that you can have in your Asian cooking arsenal is the wok pan. Knowing how to take care of it will mean you will have endless amounts of the best tasting food for years to come. To maintain the wok pan, avoid using soap when cleaning as this can affect the 'burn' or 'season' you initially performed before you started cooking. The soap can remove the protective oil coating that gives your wok pan the non-stick properties. For regular maintenance, simply rinse under water and wipe clean with kitchen paper, or a soft cloth. Then, pour a small amount of cooking oil onto kitchen paper and wipe over the inside and outside of the wok pan to protect from rust. ✭ We advise not using sharp utensils when using the wok pan as it can scratch the surface. You can use wooden or bamboo utensils for optimum cooking.
