Stir-Fried Broccoli with Chili-Garlic Sauce

Stir-Fried Broccoli with Chili-Garlic Sauce by John Spottiswood

My father-in-law has become an amazing cook, and he made this as part of our Easter lunch this year with the fabulous pork tenderloin recipe (see linked below). This version isn't gloppy with extra sauce like you find in many Chinese take out places. It's very flavorful but also relatively light and healthful. He made a TON of it,…

MINCED CHICKEN & LAP CHEUNG IN LETTUCE CUPS

MINCED CHICKEN & LAP CHEUNG IN LETTUCE CUPS by Linda Tay Esposito

There are so many versions of Chicken in Lettuce Cups. This recipe features the classic trinity of chicken, lap cheung (Chinese wax sausages) and dried shrimp. If you are in the San Francisco Bay Area, get the Wycen lap cheung (Washington/Stockton or Clement/7th) . They make their sausages locally and offer extra lean 100%…

Shrimp and Tofu with Black Bean Sauce

Shrimp and Tofu with Black Bean Sauce by John Spottiswood

We're on a mission to create the ultimate black bean sauce. This recipe is getting pretty close I think. I took bits from a traditional Chinese recipe and combined those with another few bits that I got from a Martin Yan recipe. The result was not as sweet as Martin Yan's, but with just enough sweetness to fill out the flavor of…

Chicken Lettuce Wraps

Chicken Lettuce Wraps by Joanne Weir

This is one of those dishes that I have to order every single time I go to Chinatown and see them on the menu. I love the crunch of the lettuce, the saltiness of the soy sauce, and the sweetness of the oyster sauce. You can substitute turkey, pork or squab with equally delicious results.

Brown Sauce with meatballs

Brown Sauce with meatballs by Weining Wang

There is only one reason why I wish to be a good chef: the determination of being a culinary martyr out of real ardent love. Like the lonely old man in my poem who walks along the silent street immersed in the dark night, despite of the sand storms and the agony loneliness trying to swallow him up, he keeps smiling and never loses his…

XINJIANG LAMB MINI PITA POCKETS

XINJIANG LAMB MINI PITA POCKETS by Linda Tay Esposito

On the Silk Road path, the Uyghur cuisine in north western China uses a lot of spices and features goat and lamb dominantly. It's not what one would typically think of as Chinese foods. The Uyghurs also serve most of their dishes with a chewy flatbread that reminds me of bagel just holeless. This Xinjiang Lamb Mini Pita Pockets…

Easy Chinese Asparagus and Beef

Easy Chinese Asparagus and Beef by John Spottiswood

This is so easy to make that I'm almost embarrassed to put it on. However, my Chinese friend Joyce said "I could eat this every night!" when she tasted it, and I almost agree. It has a great classic Chinese flavor. Nothing fancy, but lots to like all the same!

My grandfather’s kitchen is a small but warm place where I spent almost twenty years. The inner satisfaction and happiness I have got cannot be weighed in the scale of universal equivalence.What I spend there is not a time of life. It is a state of mind, the spirit of martyr that I am constantly seeking for.The stinky Tofu added…

Easy Chinese Green Beans with Pork

Easy Chinese Green Beans with Pork by John Spottiswood

This is a very easy and healthy Wok meal that I often throw together with fresh green beans and extra pork roast or pork chops. It tastes great with very little or no pork too, if you prefer vegetarian dishes. This is best done in a wok over very high heat, but you can stir fry it in a large saute pan if you do not have a wok. This…
