Product Description
Product Description
Why a Wok? To enjoy Asian cooking at its best you need very high temperatures, and a Carbon Steel Wok is ideal. Carbon Steel heats up quicker than stainless steel and aluminium while also being relatively light to allow easy turning of the food.
Non Stick or Uncoated? Traditionally Woks are uncoated. They are simply seasoned with a little oil before their use and thereafter periodically. The advantage of being uncoated is that higher temperatures can be reached which are in turn transferred directly to the food. On the downside Non Stick coatings make cleaning far easier and helps maintain the appearance of the Wok. If you are a very serious Asian Cook then use uncoated, otherwise Non Stick will make your life easier.
Standard or Heavy Gauge? If you cook regularly then think about a Heavy Gauge option otheriwse a Standard Wok is quite sufficient for your needs.
Accessories? Should you wish to steam in your Wok then two sizes of Bamboo will meet your requirements plus of course 2 sizes of Lid.
Why Swift Spice? Swift Spice is a range designed, developed and manufactured for you, the Asian Cook. With 2 ranges of Woks, uncoated Carbon Steel and Non Stick Carbon Steel, we have a Wok for every occasion and every cook. In addition the tight range of accessories provide for all your requirements and of course the two Sets make for ideal gifts.

A serious,heavy-duty wok."Helper-handles"may be frowned upon but here it is useful.No dodgy non-stick item,this wok gives excellent results after initial seasoning.Recommended by the cook of the house!

and it was still worth it! An excellent piece of kit! Although its only under a week old, I have done stir fry's, chicken in batter and puppodums with great success. Just clean it by hand!

My wok arrived yesterday. Earlier in the day I'd been out buying all the ingredients to make my first stir fry. IT was good!
This wok is really high quality. It's solid and heavy and gives you a sense of 'I can master any oriental cuisine'. At only £12 you can't really go wrong here.
The heavy steel pan has a couple of strong hard wood handles which aid the cooking process - you'll need to use two hands as the wok is pretty heavy!.
This is my first wok and my first attempt at stir fry. So, for £12 I bought a high quality wok which will last me a long time, but if I fail or get bored with stir fry, I've only "wasted" £12.

Very happy with this purchase. It is heavy and you have to ensure proper care (so it doesn't rust), but it cooks beautifully.

Diabolical wok now ready for the bin!
Followed the seasoning instructions and have ended up with a heavily burnt wok. This is most probably due to the lacquer which is a nightmare to scrub off.
