Chicken Wings in Ok Sauce
This recipe was told to me by two chinese friends after I had been for a meal at their home and told them how much I had enjoyed the taste. It is quite easy to prepare and the ingrediants are easy to aquire localy.
Chicken Chow Mein
I love Chicken Chow Mein and have found that each restaurant has it’s own take on the recipe. Therefore, I have tried to compile my own favorite. This was originally from the Food Network Kitchens but it is now from Diane’s Kitchen.;) Don’t let the long laundry list frighten you, you have to get it all ready before hand and then it’s a breeze! Most of the ingredients are seasonings and items you find in your pantry. Update: 05/04/2009 – sorry but I made this over the weekend again and I tweaked it even more – I used 3 scallions instead of 1, crushed red pepper flakes – it needed a bit of a zing – used 6 ounces of button mushrooms instead of 4. Of course we have to be careful with the dark soy sauce, I use low-sodium Tamari (the flavor is much smoother) also, it is not as salty as the other – at least I think so!!

Shrimp With Black Beans in Lobster Sauce
This is my #1 favorite Chinese dish and it has taken me a few years to duplicate the restaurant recipes and then enhanced to my liking. This origins of this recipe comes from the Lobster Cantonese style dish (with Lobster Sauce and a Chinese-American creation) which was popular in Cantonese restaurants in North America around 1950 or so years ago. Then another variation was created using shrimp and this dish was called Shrimp in Lobster Sauce (which uses the same sauce as the Lobster Cantonese dish but no lobster meat is used). These basic recipes contained a white type of sauce and with some green peas and ground pork added. After this still another variation was created and this time using salted fermented black beans in a dark soy sauce and either Lobster or Shrimp was used. Further, for this recipe (and the other above dishes) getting the eggs to “set” on top of the sauce was a challenge since most home ranges can not generate a very high heat (when using a wok) for cooking. However, I was successful in getting the eggs to “Set” properly by using heated sesame oil. That is, getting the eggs to “set” by partially cooking them (slightly runny eggs) and not incorporated them completely into the sauce.
