Vegetarian Spring Rolls

Some supermarkets sell spring roll wrappers. If you cannot get hold of them use filo pastry instead. For a different flavour, replace spring onions with 10g of chopped coriander.

Pancakes

These pancakes are easy to make – they are cooked in pairs – and are often eaten with crispy or roast duck. In Northern China, where wheat is a staple crop, pancakes are often used to wrap meat and vegetables.

Sweet and Sour Prawn Stir-fry

We have added sliced pineapple to our sweet and sour prawns to make this a special dish to be remembered. If preferred, replace prawns with chicken or pork. Remember to cut the meat into bite size pieces and season before lightly dusting in cornflour.

Hot and Sour Soup

This soup is popular because it has so many different flavours – pepper hot, slightly sweet and savoury. Our version uses Wing Yip’s Spicy Szechuan Sauce.

Fish in Yellow Bean Sauce

Use any fish steaks you like for this dish. I used Swordfish steaks but cod, hoki or monkfish work just as well. Delicious served with hot white rice.
