Homemade Wonton Soup
This is a recipe I have perfected on my own through the years. I am one who never measures, so take the measurements as a guide, not as law. This recipe is one that my family members beg me to make all the time! Enjoy!
Chinese Sticky Rice Cake
This rice cake is a sweet dessert made with glutinous rice flour (also called sweet rice flour) and red bean paste. The recipe was given to me by my Chinese sister-in-law. It has a firm custard-like texture, which is different for many Western palates and is a favorite of my family.
Thai-Inspired Steamed Chicken Thighs
These tender, juicy chicken thighs are simmered in coconut juice and served in a zesty sauce that's full of umami flavor. Best served over a bed of jasmine rice.
Bánh Tét
Bánh tét and bánh chung (the square cake version) are available year-round and are traditional for the Lunar New Year in Vietnam. It's a sticky rice cake with various fillings, some are sweet and some are savory. Mung beans, pork, and sticky rice are the core ingredients in this recipe. Raffia string is usually used to tie the cakes but I've used kitchen twine. Also, traditionally these are more elaborately trussed than tied as I did here to simplify. I wrapped the cakes in foil, that's Andrea Nguyen's move. Once the cakes are cooked you can wrap them in gold or red plastic ribbon for luck in the new year.
Pineapple Baked Rice (Main Course for Chinese New Year)
Pineapple baked rice uses a pineapple skin as a bowl, stuffing it with fried rice. After you bake it for 15 minutes, the pineapple flavor will go into the rice and your whole house will be filled with pineapple aroma! This is great for kids. It has vegetables and a light, sweet taste . You may add cheese on top of the rice if you like. I personally don't like to add cheese, I want to keep the dish simple and original. I serve it as a main course for Chinese New Year.
General Tso's Whole Turkey
A Chinese take on the holiday roast turkey. The sauce is a sweet and spicy flavorful glaze on the crispy skin of the turkey with a hint of orange and cranberry. The whole red peppers with green onions on the side add a festive touch. The dressing is a savory rice dressing with cranberries and nuts. Sure to become a year-round favorite. Garnish with whole dried red peppers and green onions along the side.
Adzuki Mooncake
This traditional Chinese cake is so moist and indulgent. You can substitute adzuki beans with mung beans, lotus seeds, chestnuts, mixed nuts, dried fruits, etc. Once cool, these are ready to be served or wrapped as gift. They will be even more moist if you leave them at room temperature for 2 days. For a more authentic shape, press the cakes into a mooncake mold, small cake tins, cookie cutters, even muffins tins after they have been rolled in flour.
Beef and Sausage Fried Wontons
Crispy rolled wonton wrappers filled with an Oriental spiced beef and sausage filling, fried to perfection. Delicious dipped in Oriental sweet chile sauce.
Fried Rice with Lychees (Koa Pad Lin Gee)
This is a sweeter rice dish, with lychees and raisins adding a pleasant and refreshing sweetness, balanced with salty cashew nuts. Maggi sauce is a German savory sauce popular in Thailand.
