This afternoon I seasoned my new Wok and proceeded to make a chicken fried rice. I've done it on a gas stove but it makes a mess, while the stove never gets hot enough. I just moved to Texas and my house has an induction cooktop so no stovetop. Alas, I can use my new Weber Performer!
It turned out pretty good, but I learned a few things:
1. Don't use the Vortex under the Wok. I couldn't rest the wok on the grate as it instead sits on the Vortex, which then starves the charcoal of oxygen. Also it gets too hot. I should use baskets as they are lower
2. You have to constantly pull the wok away while stirring, else it gets too damn hot
3. The wok is hot and you can easily burn your finger. Yes, I did that.
All in all it was pretty good. I could of fried the rice a little more, also the carrots needed to cook more. Also need to cut the chicken into smaller pieces. But at the end of the day, everyone is full.
Feedback is welcome.
