WELCOME to Wok & Skillet

Hello! My name is Char and I'm so thrilled you're here!

Here at Wok & Skillet, I share easy Asian recipes that you can make at home. In most of my recipes here, you'll find detailed instructions on how to prepare the dish from start to finish, complete with step-by-step photos.

I hope that you'll find some of your favorite Asian dishes here and be inspired to try a dish or two!

New to Asian Cooking?

Asian cooking does not have to be intimidating and I hope that by reading my recipes and posts, you’ll be convinced that if I can do it, you can do it too!

I grew up around very good food but it wasn’t until I moved from Malaysia to Oregon in 2000 that I had no choice but to learn how to cook for myself. I was forced to put my passion into action with a real working knowledge of how to cook the foods I loved!

My love for cooking and (thankfully) my kitchen skills continued to grow so I launched Wok & Skillet on January 1st 2012 to share my passion for cooking and to demystify Asian cuisine.

HELPFUL RESOURCES FOR ASIAN COOKING:

  • My collection of Asian recipes
  • My "How-to" resources
  • An easy guide on how to navigate your local Asian supermarket like a pro!
  • My top 10 Asian Kitchen Essentials
  • A shopping list of Asian Pantry Staples
  • Step-by-step guide on How to Season a New Wok

Let's Stay in Touch!

Thank you so much again for stopping by! I hope to see you again soon!
Take care.
