Title: A bang for your buck
Review: This cookbook is truly a bang for your buck! Before diving into it, I had no idea you need to prep your wok before cooking – and I'm sure I'm not alone. The book provides a straightforward, step-by-step guide on how to properly prepare your wok, from washing it to cleaning the oil, and even includes a seasoning procedure that I never knew about.Beyond just prepping, the cookbook teaches you essential techniques, like the proper way to sear proteins and the precise timing for cooking vegetables. If you're looking to not only discover new recipes but also maximize your wok’s potential, this book is the way to go!I tried the orange tofu recipe, and it turned out amazing! Just a tip – follow the instructions exactly as given in the book, because it does not miss!

Title: Wide variety of vegetable recipes
Review: It's a great book to try new Asin flavors. I loved the wide variety of delicious-sounding vegetable recipes. I do not have a wok, but I used my large cast iron pan, which worked great as a substitute. The Garlic-Spiced Indian Vegetables and Garlicky Sesame with Asparagus were tasty. The recipes were easy to follow and had good directions. Pictures would have added a lot to this book, but overall, it was very friendly.

Title: Lots of Recipes
Review: I came close to loving this book. I appreciated the beginning being dedicated to caring for the wok, choosing the right wok and proper utensils. For me, too many of the recipes used oyster sauce. I felt it was a good book for cooks new to wok-style cooking.

Title: Creative and low-cost 
Review: It's all about trying new flavors and having fun cooking. Full of traditional Asian flavors and techniques, it helps bring out the best in each ingredient. It’s a fun way to make each recipe feel a little special. I enjoy trying different kinds of food from around the world. The Asian recipes in the book, like Vinegar with Spiced Chicken or Honeyed Beef Stir-Fry, fit right in. I love a good mix of cooking styles, and the wok brings something new and exciting to the table. Then there’s the focus on quick and healthy meals. I often look for ways to whip up meals that are fast yet nutritious. This cookbook nails it with recipes that are both quick to prepare, using fresh ingredients and minimal oil. It’s ideal for anyone wanting to eat well without spending hours in the kitchen.

Title: No pictures - bad layout
Review: This would be a much better cookbook had it had pictures. The layout of each recipe is very hard to follow. There is no break between recipes! Also, I “returned” the book, but you all don’t actually want the book back! WHY? I definitely did not use it, and won’t use it! I literally opened the box, looked through the cookbook, and immediately didn’t like it! I won’t use it! I guess I’ll donate it!

Title: A complete stir fry cookbook in all means. Loved it.
Review: I like stir fry recipe from my childhood days. I remember my grandma preparing lovely recipes in the big skillet and feeding me with lots of love. Ever since I bought a new skillet, I was searching for a perfect guide to taste those good old tastes of love. When I find this cook book I was impatient to cook the first stir fry recipe and I could not believe my tongue as the taste was exactly same as my grandma’s preparation. It brought tears to my eyes. Yet Thanks to the author for this great edition because of which I could rewind my sweet and yummy memories with my grandmother. Now I have started preparing stir fries in my skillet for my children, and they too love to eat it. I am so thankful to the author that because of this book I could polish my skills of skillet cooking and I am confident that even if my friends come together to my home for tasting my food, I can confidently feed them with the help of this single cook book. Yummy collections. I will recommend this to all my friends and family.

Title: Very nice well written book.
Review: Very nice well written book. The recipes are quite easy to follow and the only problem that I have is the same one that almost every other reviewer mentioned. There are no pictures. Read, NO pictures whatsoever. Generally in a cookbook you like to see a photograph of the dish that you will be preparing as it generally gives you an idea of what your dish should look like an even whether or not the dish is something you really want to try. Hope you have a good imagination with this book.

Review: This is a jam packed book, something for everyone. My Wok has sat unused for so long, and now it's out and constantly in the sink... The mushroom rice and ginger pork has become a firm favourite quick dish, and there are many more. My only criticism is that there are no images to wet your appetite, which is indicative of a POD self published offering. But if you can look past that, there's much in here to like...
