Fish Fragrant Eggplant Rice (魚香茄子飯) is a cozy, flavour-packed rice bowl made with soft, silky eggplant and minced pork, coated in a rich savoury “fish fragrant” sauce. It’s a simple dish to make at home and tastes delicious and comforting, especially when served over a bowl of hot steamed rice.
If you’re looking for a simple, comforting and healthy Asian dessert, try this Chinese black sesame soup. It’s warm, nutty, rich, and made with just three ingredients: black sesame, glutinous rice flour and brown sugar. Perfect for colder days of whenever you just want an easy dessert that feels cozy and satisfying!
Cantonese crispy pork belly (siu yuk) is known for its super crispy, bubbly skin and juicy, tender meat underneath. It’s made with simple ingredients, but it really comes down to careful prep to get that perfect texture. The result is rich, savoury and really satisfying with that signature crunch.
This Chinese Tomato Minced Pork Stir-Fry is a simple dish that always brings me back to childhood. My mom used to make it and pack it in my lunchbox for school. Tangy tomatoes, savoury pork, and the sauce mixed with rice make it so comforting and hard to stop eating.
Would you believe me if I told you that this classic Chinese dessert, ginger milk pudding, is made with just two ingredients: ginger and milk? It’s soft, silky, jiggly and super warming and comforting.
If you want to start cooking Cantonese food at home, the good news is you don’t need a huge pantry or a hundred different sauces. Once you have a few key ingredients in your kitchen, the world is your oyster sauce (pun intended!).
