GOK WAN: Live Webchat - Friday 11 October, 1.45-2.45pm

[RachelMumsnet]

We'll still be sweeping up the biscuit crumbs left from the Jennifer Saunders webchat as we prepare for the return of Gok Wan to Mumsnet Towers on Friday 11 October at 1.45pm. Since his last visit in Summer 2010, Gok has produced 2 cookery books and his latest, Gok's Wok is published this week.

Gok shares many of his family's traditional recipes but gives them a modern twist as he teaches us how to cook, simple, fast meals with flavour and a splash of Gok originality. Chapters cover all occasions from lunches to dinner parties and include curries, stir-fries, noodles, salads, soups and desserts.

Join Gok on Friday at 1.45pm or post a question to him in advance to this thead and you'll be entered into a draw to win a SIGNED copy of Gok's Wok.

We have also teamed up with Gok and Sainsbury's to host a live cookalong on Google+. On Wednesday 16 October at 7pm Gok will be making two super-delicious dishes from his new book and he'd love you to join him in cooking them. Find out more here.

Hello MNers (and hello Gok, apologies for butting in)

Could you please remember our Webchat Guidelines, especially:

a) one question per poster
b) be civil and polite

We're going to go through now and delete posts that break the Guidelines. And we'd be grateful if you could bear them in mind before you post.

Thanks awfully

sorry rowan

I was just trying to help

@BecauseYoureGorgeous

When making oriental curries do you use pre-made curry paste or are you a pestle-and-mortar type? Do you think pre-made paste is a reasonable substitute?

I make all of my own curry pastes. They are really simple once you have the ingredients and the know how. What is also great about making your own is you can modify them to your own taste. The pre made ones are fine but they tend to lack flavour for me. Plus many are quite oily and salty. I say give it a go. Enjoy. x

Clothing question please Gok - do you recommend getting your season/colours done to help with clothing choices or just wear what you feel good in? Thanks

I am really sorry midwife, I thought you were joking.

Sorry Rowan, will wait patiently.

HEY,

I don't really agree with getting your colours done. I feel it will only limit you. You will instinctually know what suits you. Maybe ask a good friend what they think if you're unsure.

cool beans midwife

Cheers Gok! You just saved me £99 and made me feel a whole lot better about myself. :)

So limiting your own personal comfort by wearing spanx and high heels is ok but limiting the range of colours you can wear is not ok?

Just checking.

Gok that's a date!
