Beef in Black Bean Sauce on Flat Rice Noodles

Black beans are salted and fermented soya beans. It makes a very versatile sauce and here it is combined with beef and peppers and served on flat rice noodles instead of rice. Rice noodles need to be soaked in tepid water to soften them. The noodles need to be soft but firm for frying.

Hoisin Duck Wraps

This is a good way to use up left over take away roast duck. Tortilla wraps are now sold in most supermarkets. A nice lighter option full of oriental flavour. Alternatively, traditional pastry pancakes are available from Wing Yip stores in frozen form

Mussels with Chilli and Black Bean Sauce

Clean mussels by scrubbing in plenty of cold water, pulling off the “beards” and removing any barnacles. Discard any open mussels, especially if they don’t close when tapped. Provide finger bowls, plenty of paper napkins and an empty bowl for the shells.

Ma Po Tofu

This Szechuan dish is popular the world over. It is supposed to be named after the old woman with a pock marked face who created it. Full flavoured and easy to prepare.

Spicy Szechuan Pork on Rice Noodles

Flat rice noodles make a nice change as it is a noodle that is suitable for people with a gluten intolerance. We like the contrast in colours in this dish. Do remember to wash the leeks well and do not discard all of the green tops.

Mango Beef

Definitely a dish with an interesting flavour for that special meal! Choose a ripe but firm mango which will hold it shape. If you like your steak underdone, do use beef fillet

Celebration Platter

Serve this combination plate with oriental dipping sauces as a starter or on a buffet.It need not be difficult as many items are readily available from the supermarket or on the website. Choose your own combination or items but do include some fresh vegetables.

Chicken and Prawn Laksa Curry

This rich curry flavoured noodle is traditionally served with prawns and sliced fish cake but here we have replaced fish cake with chicken. The pre-cooked base stock makes this an easy meal to prepare.
