3 out of 5 stars A Good Starter book, but average recipes   May 21, 2003
Don Riddick (Birmingham, AL, United States)
5 out of 5 found this review helpful

Sam Choy is famous for his spectacular Hawaiian cuisine. I own almost every book he's written. However, not all books are equal. This is a bound manual, a spiral notebook slightly larger than a paperback. It is on thick stock, and can stand up to some cooking stains, which is good.
The first section deals with ingrediants, substitutions, the correct type of wok, how to use oil, and what tools are necessary to cook. For a beginner in the world of Wokking, this is a wonderful primer.
But the recipes, and there are a lot of them, are standard fair. If you want to know how to make simple stir fry dishes you could get at your local chinese restaurant, or at a barbeque, then this book is great. But there is not a lot of creativity in dishes, this is a catalog of the standards, not an unusual cookbook with anything really unique, other than Sam's direct and easy to follow approach.
If you are new to stir-fry, I highly recommend it, if you have done some stir fry before, try another cookbook.
