Paper with 5.5kW passing through it? Is that a good idea?


Not if you don't have water in the pan.

They only get to boiling point when there is water in,

but a wok could get a lot hotter. BTDTGTTS, it only takes a few seconds
with a thin pressed steel wok like the ones they did in Asda for 99p. I
took it back under the Asda promise and bought a decent stainless steel
wok that is fine for a couple of minutes before it gets too hot and
smokes the oil.
