Pasties
Original recipe: https://www.food.com/recipe/pasties-383441Hoisin Chicken Kebabs
Hoisin (or Hoi Sin) sauce also known is Chinese barbeque sauce, can be found pre-made in a jar at the supermarket. I prefer to use the “Fountain” brand, but there are many options these days. I’ve served this recipe hot as a main meal with an Asian Vegetable Stir-fry as a side dish. I’ve also brought them to a social function and thread them on small skewers, they were eaten cold as finger food. Ten minute marinating time is included in preparation. You can marinate this overnight or just ten minutes.
Crispy Garlic Lemon Potatoes
A delicious low fat potato dish which I found in the November 2005 issue of the ‘Australian Good Taste’ magazine, as an accompaniment to Recipe #145704. I have posted both recipes for the post-ZWT Healthy for the Holidays Challenge.
Chicken With Cashews
A Chinese type of Chicken with Cashews recipe. I added less peanut oil when I was stir-frying as I thought six tablespoons was a bit to much. I used chicken liquid stock instead of water to give the recipe more flavour. I use bean sprout instead bamboo shoots (personal taste) however I think you could add any vegetables you wish without dramatically altering the flavour. When I make this again I would add cashews to the wok to allow them to warm a little instead of sprinkling them at the end. The recipe said the yields is four servings but we had small servings for three people. This recipe is from ‘Cooking with Love’ by Friends of Karen, Inc Does not include marinating time.
