How can I avoid fried rice always sticking to my wok?

+2
−0

picture of woks

Food keeps sticking to my pan, and my fry pan is too shallow! When I stir fry rice, for ex., some rice always flies out the pan! Also, the rice cooks onto the bottom of the pan when I fry it and it's hard to clean.

I am using an induction burner and a Zwilling wok; I picked Zwilling because I heard they're the best. Full disclosure...I'm not affiliated with Zwilling. I don't know why, but Zwilling makes only two woks with a handle on the other side. Forte 30 cm / 12 inch Aluminum Wok doesn't work because it's aluminum and that doesn't work on an induction burner.

The only option is Vista Clad 30 cm / 12 inch 18/10 Stainless Steel Wok. How can I be more successful in cooking my fried rice without sticking and making a mess?

That food sticks to your stainless steel pan / wok isn't something too uncommon. Could you add if you use oil, please? Thanks.

I suggest you drop all the stuff about "aluminium doesn't work on induction hobs" - it's not really relevant to whether stainless steel woks necessarily stick.

@Zerotime Yes, I use oil. But food still sticks.
