  Cooking Light - Martin Yan Can Teach - Healthy Recipes and Menus
Yan's mission is to teach his television viewers and cookbook readers that cooking can be fun, quick, and easy.
Just about every kind of wok (whether round-bottomed for gas burners or flat-bottomed for electric ranges) is now available with a nonstick coating, so you don't have to use much oil for stir-frying.
Yan compares Chinese-style braising to the technique of reducing in Western cooking: The liquid evaporates to concentrate the flavor.

 Frugal Gourmet / Why Martin Yan is proud of the holes in his socks
Yan's company, Yan Can Cook Inc., staffed by a mere six people, is housed in an unassuming office park in San Mateo that looks more like a dentist's office than the headquarters of an entertainment empire.
Yan also never buys on impulse, and he plans six to 12 months ahead for major purchases such as a house, a car or even a computer.
Yan, born in December 1948 in a small house at the end of a dirt road in the outskirts of Guangdong, hails from humble beginnings.

 The Pacific -- Martin Yan
If Yan had showcased this "healthy" cooking style in Asia 15 or 20 years ago, he "probably wouldn't have an audience because the food wouldn't have been available (in Asia)," says Carolyn Jung, food editor at the San Jose Mercury News.
After a year at a college in Calgary, Canada, he decided that Canadian winters were not to his liking and moved to the University of California at Davis, where he received a master's degree in food science in 1975.
Yan grabbed his wok and a spatula, walked over to the man and gave him a "gong." He scolded him for paying so much just to sleep in the class and told him to go home.

Some cooks define wok hay as the "taste of the wok." Other cooks describe wok hay in near poetic terms.
When a wok is not scorching hot, food cannot be seared and a stir-fry becomes watery.
A stir-fry's wok hay must be relished the moment it is cooked, before the elusive vital essence dissipates (similar in a way to a souffle).

 Amazon.ca: The Breath of a Wok : Unlocking the Spirit of Chinese Wok Cooking Through Recipes and Lore: Books: Grace ...
The wok's "breath" is the heat rising from the sizzling instrument as a dish is finished, but also much more, according to Young (The Wisdom of the Chinese Kitchen).
In the 1970s the wok burst into the American consciousness, along with the flurry of interest in all things Chinese inaugurated by Nixon's memorable trip to Beijing.
Once technical concerns are overcome, the wok can finally be put to use to create "wok hay," the special, unique flavor achieved by the truly practiced cook.

 Yan Comes Up Short / Well-known chef's fast-food venture suffers from sameness
The concept is built on Yan's personality, wide-ranging travels and 25-year reputation as creator of the popular PBS show "Yan Can Cook." In fact, at the restaurant entrance, the menu near the ordering counter competes for diners' attention with continuous tapes of the smiling chef chopping chicken, stir-frying vegetables and pounding out dumplings.
Too much oil can also be a problem at Yan Can, especially in the lo mein ($6), in which the noodles are tossed with onions, bean sprouts, carrots, celery and snow peas.
I'm convinced from the show and cookbooks that Yan can cook, but if people based their impressions on the what they consume at the restaurant, many might vote to can Yan.
