Cantonese Roast Duck

Adapted from an old Craig Claiborne recipe I like very much. Cooking time is very approximate and may go longer than stated (the original recipe indicated only about 1 hour but I have not found it to be done in that time when using the size of duck indicated). Preparation time does not include letting duck dry overnight.

Chow Dai Wey Choy

Elegant stir-fried vegetables, another wonderful Chinese recipe from Jim Lee’s 1970s cookbook. “Cooking time” is actually time to soak mushrooms. The actual cooking time is included in “Preparation time” since it involves active stir-frying almost the whole time rather than passively letting it cook. May be served alone or over rice.

Hong Shu Gai Kew

This is an age-old Cantonese inspired dish that dates back to 100 A.D. The recipe has rarely been shared in its entirety with anyone in general. So enjoy it and share with your best friends. Let me know how it goes, and if you have tweaks or suggestions that worked better for you.

Really Good Vegetarian Meatloaf (Really!)

High in fiber and protein, low in fat, easy and really yummy! I’ve always thought meatloaf looks and smells so delicious and savory so, as a vegetarian, I decided to make a no-meat version! This is basically our favorite meatloaf recipe but with cooked mashed lentils instead of ground meat. The result is a very tasty dinner!
