Can a Stainless Steel wok NOT stick?

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

>[Aluminum, all-copper, or glass cookware will *not* work unless they have a layer on the bottom with magnetic properties. Many manufacturers have started adding a magnetic layer to the bottom of these pans, but older, non-magnetic pans simply will not work.

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](https://www.zwilling.com/ca/cookware/woks-stir-fry-pans/?prefn1=spec_substance&prefv1=Stainless%20Steel%7CCast%20iron%7CGlass) with a handle on the other side.

How can I be more successful in cooking my fried rice without sticking and making a mess?
