Serves 2Hung Shao pork with steamed greens and fragrant rice
Perfect for Chinese New Year, you won’t believe how easy this is and how wonderful it tastes. You don’t have to eat the skin on the pork, but its gelatinous properties are very important to the flavour of the finished dish.
Serves 4Chinese Stir-fried Rice

Chopsticks at the ready: like all stir-fries, this flavourful recipe is quick and easy to make and is a great way to eke out a piece of steak for two people.

Purple sprouting broccoli has a short spring season so enjoy it to the full with this quick and easy stir-fry recipe packed with flavour and low in fat. Then, when the purple sprouting variety has gone, use standard broccoli instead.
Serves 2-3Oriental Turkey Stir-fry with Broccoli, Cashew Nuts and Shiitake Mushrooms
The great thing about stir-fries is speed, and the great thing about turkey stir-fries is that the meat is already trimmed and prepared. You could ring the changes by replacing the broccoli with sliced sugar snaps, and shiitake mushrooms with any oth
