Chinese New Year Sweet Rice

Recipe by: SEMANO

Be the first to review it!

This is a traditional Chinese sweet rice recipe that is usually served for the Chinese New Year. This recipe was handed down to me from my dad who liked to eat this alone as a main dish, so it's a little heartier than most other sweet rice recipes. For those of you who know what Chinese sweet rice is, this is the most delicious recipe yet!

Chinese New Year Turnip Cake

Recipe by: Carol, Chung Chi Wa

Be the first to review it!

This recipe is handed down from my mum's mum. This is NOT a dessert (not sweet), but more like a 'quick bread' for the Chinese. This 'cake' is usually made and eaten during the Chinese New Year or its slices are usually found all year round as dim sum in Chinese restaurants. This cake can be kept for 1 week in the fridge (but usually it's finished within a day!!)

All the family will love this sweet and sour casserole that makes the most of seasonal fresh plums. It's traditionally flavoured with ginger, five-spice, vinegar, soy and spring onions, and the addition of water chestnuts and cubes of sweet potato turn it into a complete, low-fat dish.

Chinese spring rolls

Recipe by: Maggie Pannell

Be the first to review it!

These popular Chinese light bites, filled with chicken and crisp vegetables, are given a new twist, wrapped with filo pastry rather than the usual wonton wrappers, then baked, not deep-fried. Enjoy with a fruity chutney and an Oriental-style salad, or serve as party nibbles.

Cold sesame noodles and vegetables

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

A long-time favourite at Chinese restaurants, cold sesame noodles make a great main or side dish. We've replaced hard-to-find sesame paste with peanut butter and sesame oil.

Glazed Chinese Spare Ribs

Really tasty and really easy to make. They take a bit of time but they are worth it. They don't last 5 minutes in this house.

Pork Wontons

This recipe makes enough for a party or you can freeze them in batches. Filled with pork, pak choi, water chestnuts and other wonderful ingredients, these tasty wontons are well worth making. You can buy wonton wrappers in Asian shops.

Wontons for Noodle Soup

Recipe by: CWYC

Be the first to review it!

This recipe makes a huge batch - around 150 wontons. The great thing is you can freeze them. Wonton noodle soup is a traditional Cantonese meal served as a hearty breakfast or lunch. These wontons, made from seasoned pork and prawns, are the actual dumplings served with noodles and chicken stock. 'Dashi' - or fish flakes - is an optional ingredient, but adds wonderful flavour. The wrappers or skins are smaller than spring roll wrappers and can be bought fresh or frozen from Asian shops.
