Chinese recipes

A quick, easy and delicious chicken-lettuce stir-fry is ideal for a busy week-night meal when served with rice.

An easy yet flavorful sichuan fried rice is packed with goodness. A great week-day meal is all in one pot.

After a few potsticker recipes, I finally made my very first bunch of pot sticky buns (another popular food in China). They came out soft, and quite delicious. Nicely browned and crispy at the bottom. It's an excellent way to use up some of our fresh veggies.

Side ribs are cheaper than back ribs - there is lots of bone, but you can still get nice portions of meat.

So quick and easy to put together, and it tastes delicious with a good amount of flavorful sauce that's perfect with a bed of rice. Don't have Chinese cabbage? Use bok choy or other similar leafy greens, or even broccoli instead.

Potstickers are basically Chinese dumplings, just cooked differently. Instead of boiling in the water, you cook them in a hot pan with a bit oil and a bit water to develop a nicely browned and crispy crust. The fillings can be made in advance; the leftover dumplings, just freeze them raw. Whenever you feel like eating a few, cook the frozen ones directly in hot pan.

Marinated tofu, mushrooms and vegetables are packed with Asian flavors, grilling adds extra smokiness. Not only your vegetarian family or friends love these tasty skewers, but also the meat-lovers. Using the firmest tofu will make a big difference on both texture and flavor!
