ok, so me and my lass wanted to make a stir fry this evening, so we had some chicken and noodles and some veg. realise we have no clue what we are doing after my lass sticks the chicken in the oven... I point out that im sure you fry it and I look it up on the net. so I followed the instructions and stuck a canny bit of oil in our pan (got nee wok... looking at the win a wok thread now...) and get it cooking really hot till it starts smoking. once that happened next step was to add chicken, stuck that in and boom! the whole lot erupts into a towering inferno, my lass takes the brave and logical step to leap back screaming leaving the gas on... so I leap past her knocking the breadboard full of chicken onto the floor and turn off the heat, flames cool a bit and i moved the pan. the extractor fan and overhead cupboards covered in smoke marks.... so just cleaned that up and now im wondering, wtf did we do wrong?
