Pork Tofu

This is a simple local Chinese dish — a typical low-fat, everyday meal served with hot rice. From an old Hawaiian Electric Company cookbook.

Cantonese Chicken

From Company’s Coming cookbook. I’ve adjusted the recipe for 2 servings. This is a thin sauce but so tasty spooned over the chicken and mashed potatoes. Prep time does not include marinating. Easily doubled.

Cantonese Fried Rice

This delicious fried rice is a nice change of pace for leftover meat and veggies. It’s good made with your choice of ham, pork, or grilled chicken. I like to put the rice together early in the day then simply reheat it at suppertime. It’s already-tasty flavor seems to only improve with time!

Char Siew Puffs (Char Siew Sow) – Dim Sum

I have not tried this recipe yet, but hopefully will make this soon as I love Char Siew Sow! Recipe found on internet – Jo’s Bakery. Prep time includes 30mins chilling time for the dough. NOTE – this recipe is not really authentic as the fat used in traditional Chinese pastry is usually lard instead of butter.
