why is it that people have to add a video, I have tried to cook chinese for ages in my house, it is ok but it all tastes pretty much the same, I can cook well and would listen to any tips I can get, however not very good on the video front, well I am 45, come on uktv food give everyone a chance. I cook all meats and fish and use the regular soy sauce, ginger and 5 spice (is that good)
Thanks to listening to my gripe

Soy sauce, ginger, and 5 spice is a powerfull combination, perhaps you are overpowering the taste of the ingredients with them? Which could explain why it all seems to taste the same. Taste wise, I think less is often more when using spices.

I think there are issues around using a wok on a standard gas hob - I have put my two penneth in the thread on the Techniques board. Many Chinese dishes are best cooked in a very hot wok and done quickly to achieve the crisp freshness and lightness that makes chinese cooking so yummy.

I suspect that more heat, less oil, and perhaps a little less spicing will help you to get nearer to what you are looking for.
