Plain Noodles in Oyster Sauce
You may add roast chicken or duck and blanched pak choi or broccoli to make up a quick meal. Chilli sauce is an option. Double up for more people as it is a good accompaniment for a larger shared meal.
Lunch
Pork and Pineapple in Sweet and Sour Sauce
This favourite is a simple way to make sweet & sour pork for a family meal. Minced pork cooks quickly and children love this dish. You may also use minced chicken in place of pork.
Crispy Fish in Sweet and Sour Sauce with Lychees
The combination of egg white and tapioca starch makes the pieces of fish very crispy but you may use cornflour. The sauce is enhanced with the addition of lychees. All in all, one to impress your guests.
Chicken in Black Bean Sauce with Green Beans
In this dish the fine beans are not overcooked thus retaining a lot of their vitamins and crunch. This is an easy one-dish meal when combined with freshly cooked rice.
Tofu and Oyster Mushroom Stir-Fry
Tofu or bean curd is a good source of protein and ideal for vegetarians and vegans. Available in soft and firm textures, we suggest that the firmer variety be used for this recipe. Lightly season with salt and dust in cornflour before frying.
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.
Spicy Szechuan Chicken Stir-fry
Fried red chillies in this dish adds a little heat. Leave out the chillies for a milder flavour.
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.
Egg Fried Rice
Rice is an important part of a Chinese meal as it provides the ‘bulk’ necessary to a full meal. Ideally, use day old rice (remember to keep it refrigerated). If that is not possible, ensure the rice is cold.
