Default Microwave Wok

I just found one of these things. What the hell do I do with it?

You didn't read the original post - it is a "wok" for use in the microwave,
not an Asian wok. Surely it will not work on the stovetop as you are
thinking of. And please, try to quote portions of what you are replying to.

How about you read the SUBJECT "Microwave Wok" for starters?

IMHO, it's a crime to burn a steak. And dear god, if you think what I said
is *flaming* then you really have no clue.

You're quite welcome. And I still request you quote at least part of what
you are replying to. If that's what you consider flaming, so be it.

OB Food: The chuck roast is coming along nicely! Will make gravy and spoon
it over the nice fluffy brown rice I prepared last night. Later in the week
some of the leftover beef will go into a beef & broccoli stir-fry.

Wok? Microwave?
It looks like something that could be used to re-heat Chinese food.

You can't roller skate in a buffalo herd
And you can't 'wok' in a microwave.
Unless; The microwave is some bitchin' powerful thing with an internal
stirring thingy that is going to beat hell!
But you can be happy if you've a mind to.
With apologies to Roger Miller.

Wow! Isn't technology wonderful. An internet bully complete with
internet toadies! Just proves that the more things change, the more
they stay the same!
