I was going to make a whole section about the utensils I used for this recipe, But this is so simple that I only used one pot. Well, a Wok. A Wok is a deep, bowl-shaped pan that distributes the heat really well. It works so well for stir fry or deep frying things. Scroll to the bottom to get yourself one or click below. I listed 3 of my personal favorites! Oh and can’t forget about spurtels.
