HelloFresh Asian Turkey Stir Fry

Stir Fry is the fastest and easiest way to cook a well-balanced meal for the whole family, especially to fit with busy lifestyles. It is a versatile technique you can use every day. Just a simple stir and toss with a little hot oil in a wok, and your meal could be ready in five minutes or less! It is a meal that is packed with everything you love from delicious and tender bite-sized pieces of meat to crisp and bright yummy vegetables! It is also very adaptable in that you can use up bits and pieces from the fridge!

As a traditional Chinese family, this is what I have been brought up with and it has been passed down from generation to generation. One of my favourite stir fries is Singapore Seafood Hor Fun which is packed with a lot of fresh seafood and fresh flat rice noodle.

Pandan Lollipop Cookies

Did you celebrate National Lollipop Day last week? It fell on the Thursday 20^th July 2017 and to celebrate this day, I decided to make Pandan Lollipop Cookies. I love baking and I love the Pandan aroma. It always takes me back to my childhood. Also it is a unique flavour to Asia. You can get pandan chiffon cake, pandan flavoured rice, pandan glutinous ball and many more. Recently, I also baked lot of yummy pandan pretzels, do check out the recipe!

Anyway, I wanted to make use of the Pandan flavour to make lots of different kinds of recipes. Instead of using making sweet lollipops, for this National Day, I am baking Pandan lollipop cookies instead!

Cooking with Wing Yip

Earlier last month, we received a Chinese New Year pack from Wing Yip to help us to cook some nice Chinese meals. We are no strangers to Wing Yip as we pop by our local Birmingham store every few months to stock up on all our favourite Asian ingredients and foods. We often buy a 20 kg bag of rice, frozen dim sum, instant noodles and not forgetting all my favourite snacks! I love to buy prawn crackers, dried fish slices and various drinks many more!

Anyway, I have received these four different type of sauces: Chinese Fried Rice Sauce, Curry Sauce, Sweet and Sour sauce and Yellow Bean sauce.
