God, I love that Chinese girl so much...I watched the first programme in the series and she was so damned hot I immediately ordered a takeaway. Suppose that defeated the object... oh well.



3 out of 5 stars Singapore Style Noodles   August 12, 2008
 7 out of 12 found this review helpful

We have made a number of dishes from this new publication, however, when it came to cooking the Singapore Style Noodles we found the recipe quantities to be incorrect. Specifically the amount of Tumeric reads as
1-2 Tablespoons and the amount of Vermicelli Noodles ( for 2 people) reads as 250grms/9oz.Having cooked the dish it became very apparent that these quantities are wrong. After research it would appear that the correct quantities should read 1-2 Teaspoons of Turmeric and half the quantity of Vermicelli Noodles. This needs correcting.

On a positive note the other recipes tried to date have been very successful and we have enjoyed them.

I've been guilty of just slamming anything into the wok and see what it tastes like for quite some time so I thought I'd venture into asian cooking a little more.

First off, there are some tough ingredients to get (without substituting) but since they are used several times throughout it's easy enough to get them from a specialist online - I've used www.theasiancookshop.co.uk

From a cooking point of view, it's dead easy compared to european cooking and often much healthier too. There are recipes to suit 2 and also a few for entertaining guest too so I might have some fun with some friends around soon.

Chinese Food Made Easy. It is a wonderful book wtth a wide variety of recipes, A person who has never cooked Chinese food could buy a wok and give it a go! Some ingredients have been a problem in a rural area but alternatives are suggested, Some of the recipes contain tofu but it ends up tasting mainly of the other flavours, delicious!!

I bought this after falling in love with the TV show of the same name. Everything seemed so easy to make (though granted she's had a bit more cooking experience than me...)I just had to buy it a give it a go!
This is a well written book with lovely clear example photographs, and an ingredient list that (after a quick check on a supermarket site) seems to be easily available. (Any that aren't quite so easy to hunt down have been given alternatives e.g. balsamic vinegar in place of the Chinkiang black rice vinegar.)
There's lots of variety throughout too: pork, beef, tofu, noodles, fish, shellfish...something for all tastes!
I've bought a few cookbooks without reading first that I've ended up regretting, once flipping through and realising I like, say, 2 out of 100 recipes. After reading this cover to cover I am very happy I purchased it and can't wait to start trying these delicious sounding recipes out!
