Wis forWok

A wok is a kind of pan for cooking, originally from China but also used in many other Asian countries. It is similar to a frying pan but has a distinctive round bottom. The food in a wok is stirred with a kind of ladle as it is being cooked. The long handle on the ladle stops the cook's hands getting burnt as they stir the food.
