Hope you like it

What a week, but I'm trying to stick to my one new recipe per week goal for the year. I've had the ingredients in my fridge for a while now and I finally said today is the day, plus, new recipes tend to make me happy, so it's worth it. The recipe is the Mapo Tofu Wantons from Chinese Enough by Kristina Cho. I've made a few other things from this cookbook so far and they've all been so good!

Happy lunar New year everyone ☺️

I used to buy these noodles in Asia Market in Ireland and they stopped stocking them pretty soon after I discovered them. They are fantastic soothing soupy beef/lamb flavoured, they come with a packet of fragrant herbs and a packet of some sort of delicious fat that melts in the soup. Very curious to know if other people have tried/liked them and if they are very popular elsewhere?

If anyone knows of a stockist I would be forever grateful 🙏 Also if anyone could share the English name or knows the recipe for this kind of dish that would be amazing! Would love to try to make them myself some day.

Thank you!

When I lived in NY, there was a Chinese restaurant that had two menus. One “normal” menu, and one for those who were from China. My ex FIL went there with a foreign exchange student he was housing. I’ve often wondered if other places do this. He said the Chinese menu was authentic, he brought me back some sort of spicy fish soup. I’ve always wanted to see how I could explore with foods and there’s tons of places around here, all with different reviews. I figure you kinda have to know of a “gem” in order to find the really good shit.

I was missing Singapore so here is my first attempt at making hainanese chicken rice and I must say, it was sensational.

The chicken was so moist and succulent and all the sauces tasted just right!

Gluten free dumplings?

My partner and I want to try our hands at making soup dumplings but he is celiac so pre-made wrappers aren’t suitable for him. Is there anywhere that sells gluten free soup dumpling wrappers? I know we can make our own but for the first attempt, we would rather have them readymade.

I grew up in a "waste not a single grain of rice" household, and I am trying to reduce my food waste, but sometimes you forget about things. Ideally, I would really love to find a way to be able to eat these wrappers and enjoy eating them. Does anyone have suggestions for what I could do or what I can make with them?

Hi all. I don't currently have a (charcoal) grill, and want to make cumin lamb skewers. I have some some lamb legs from costco that I want to use -- I know the lower fat content may not be ideal but that's what I have to work with today.

I tried to make it on a cast iron pan in the past but it's hard to cook it evenly so I'm thinking of trying out an air fryer.

I found some recipes on Google but none of them are reviewd so idk what people think of them. I did find this one https://omnivorescookbook.com/air-fryer-lamb-skewers/ which is on omnivorescookbook and I've liked their recipes in the past.

Snow crab dumplings, Xiao long bao, shaomai, prawn hacao with spicy broccoli and cabbage.

Sizzled these up for Chinese New Year!
