A simple yet stunning dish made with everyday supermarket ingredients. This beautiful dish is a regional dish which originates from Guangdong in China and it is exactly what it says.

Yu Siang shredded chicken & aubergine served with jasmine rice ❤️
To celebrate the Chinese New Year I’ve now for a number of years cooked a dish that’s new to me. To celebrate the year of the snake again I turned to a recipe from Ching-He Huang & Ken Hom. I picked this cook book up in a second hand charity shop. This book is a…
Beef in oyster sauce ❤️🤣
This week has all been about focus. I’ve upped the ante with regards to fitness and working my heart. From Tuesday morning until Friday evening I’ve walked 32 miles (70,000 plus steps) to work and back each day as the weather has changed here in the UK. After doing the exercise daily by the end…

Grilled Asian inspired scallops
I love scallops. Due to most supermarkets and fishmongers moving to hand dived method of catching scallops the prices have shot up….and rightly so. Sustainable fishing practices should be put into place fully to protect our fishing stocks. Sadly though due to this cost rise scallops aren’t something I’d pick up nowadays. Thankfully these were…
Cantonese-style sweet & sour pork.
Chinese food fascinates me full stop. How simple ingredients can be turned into mouthwatering dishes in seconds / minutes due to having a wok that’s searing hot and cooks with speed. A number of years ago I invested in a decent wok from the Ken Hom range. Has to be decent if he has out…
