Easy Asian Recipes
Sichuan Twice Cooked Pork (回鍋肉, hui guo rou) is a classic Sichuan stir-fry made with boiled then pan-fried pork belly, leek, cabbage and a bold, savoury doubanjiang based sauce. It’s ready in under 40 minutes, and it’s one of the most flavourful dishes you can make on a weeknight!
Steamed Tofu with Salted Egg and Minced Pork (鹹蛋肉碎蒸豆腐) is a classic Cantonese home-style dish made with silky tofu, savoury minced pork and rich salted duck egg. It’s ready in under 30 minutes, high in protein, and this is the kind of dish I love to throw together when I want something quick, nourishing and no-fuss, but still super flavourful.
This Cantonese Mixed Vegetables with Mushrooms & Glass Noodles is one of my favourite ways to eat lots of veggies! It’s packed with leafy greens, umami mushrooms and glass noodles that soak up all the delicious mushroom sauce. It’s a light and comforting vegetarian meal that’s simple, flavourful and perfect for any day of the week.
If you’re looking for a lighter and more refreshing iced coffee drink to enjoy this summer, you need to try this Coconut Espresso Cloud! It has a coconut water base topped with creamy espresso cloud. Smooth, refreshing and not too sweet.
I went on a spontaneous 4-day trip to San Sebastián, eating my way through many pintxos bars and restaurants, and honestly the food really does live up to the hype! If you’re planning a visit, these are the places I highly recommend and the ones I’d 100% go back to, along with where I stayed and what else we got up to while we were there.
This Spicy Korean Cold Noodle Salad is my take on bibim-guksu, made with chewy somen noodles, lots of crunchy veg, and a sweet, spicy, tangy gochujang sauce. It’s the perfect dish to have when you want something quick and refreshing, especially in the UK heatwave!
