Easy Asian Recipes
If Sichuan mapo tofu and Chinese steamed egg had a baby, it would be this dish! Silky and jiggly steamed egg topped with a rich, spicy mapo tofu topping made with minced pork, doubanjiang and Sichuan peppercorn. It’s cozy, packed with protein and ready in less than 30 minutes!
This Thai pineapple fried rice is one of my favourite fried rice dishes. It’s made with juicy pineapple, prawns, bacon and eggs, all tossed with curry powder, turmeric and fish sauce for a savoury, fragrant and slightly sweet flavour. It’s also really easy to make and comes together in around 30 minutes.
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.
