Can you pan fry something in this wok?

Absolutely. A wok is primarily designed for pan frying. It's shape allows food to be moved from the hotter bottom pan surface up the sides where it is less hot, or to slide the more finished pieces out of the wok into a bowl. You can pan-fry meat as well but my preferred instrument in that situation is a cast iron skillet.

I've done it several times...works great. Also works great with a wok for stir-fry!!

This was a gift. I am unsure whether you can fry with it. Contact the manufacture on that question

I am assuming you have a gas stove , if so it should be ok as it sits down in the prongs over the burner. also IMHO a round bottom wok is better for cooking more things

No, in the instruction manual it says not to but it can be used for deep frying pieces of chicken or fish or the like.

Just wash it with warm water and soap. Then you need to rub some cooking oil on the cooking surface of the wok (and heat it for a bit, I think). You should find the instructions with the packaging when the wok arrives.

I am not sure. I have never tried to do that since I have a fry daddy. But I really love this skillet! I use it almost every day.

I have never tried but I can pan fry with it, so I emagine you can. It's just like any other oil you cook with.

This fryer has the element right in the oil so no you can't do anything but fry in it. It's not like you could use it like a crockpot/slow cooker.

It is not as big as a standard wok. However, we routinely cook stir fries for 4 people, and have leftovers. Depends on how much you eat, though.

Since it is a large deep fryer. I would have to believe that you can cook just about anything friable in this unit.My opinion only.....

Yes we can. Let the first side cook for a while until golden brown and, with adequate oil used initially (not much needed actually), it won't stick. We can flip it over quite easily. I use a wooden chopstick to lift up the edge and then with the other hand, a spatula to flip it over. Practice makes it easier.

It should heat up and hold heat like the wok. However the sides are not as high so it would be harder to keep everything in the pan when doing a stirfry.

Yes you can. It is very versatile and easy to do everything in one pan. I have used it to saute vegetables for soup and brown pot roast before cooking it.

Yes, you can. I have cooked everything from rice to fresh vegetables in mine. I absolutely love mine.

Yes, anything you cook in a deep fryer can be cooked in this. That is what I have found.

Yes you can. At least I do, and so far no problem. It doesn't really stop the frying smell, but it avoids the splashing around.
