Tasty Recipes for Friends and Family

Simply Chinese Feasts

In Simply Chinese Feasts, Suzie Lee pulls the reader up a seat to her table to explore the myriad Chinese celebrations, festivals and traditions, all of which centre around food and family. All the recipes have been designed for the home kitchen. Growing up, TV presenter and author Suzie Lee was extremely fortunate in that her parents carried on the customs and traditions of Hong Kong in their family home in Northern Ireland, and now Suzie wants to do the same with this follow up book to her debut cookbook Simply Chinese. Ring in Chinese New Year with crescent moon-shaped dumplings (to be eaten during the last hour of the old year and the first hour of the new) and indulge in a fish dish to encourage prosperity. Recipes include Salted Chilli Chicken, Traditional Dumplings, Lotus Root Crisps, as well as Chestnut Tart and Fluffy Birthday Cupcakes. Structured via food group, in each section, Suzie will reveal the traditions, symbolism and lucky sayings associated with fish, meat, bread or cakes, before delving into delicious recipes to be shared and celebrated with family and friends. And Suzie will, of course, throw in her famous twists, allowing the reader to tailor recipes to their needs.&#160;Looking for kid-, veggie-, budget-friendly or super quick meals? Look no further!

Suzie Lee is the 2020 winner of BBC’s Best Home Cook, the presenter of Suzie Lee Home Cook Hero and author of Simply Chinese and Simply Chinese Feasts. Brought up by her Hong Kong parents in Northern Ireland, Suzie was taught to cook by her mum.

Recipes from a Chinese Home Kitchen

Simply Chinese

Simply Chinese is a sumptuous collection of classic and modern Chinese home-style recipes that can be made, with ease, in your own home kitchens. For Suzie Lee, food and Chinese home cooking has always been personal &ndash; in Chinese culture, food and family are intertwined. Suzie strives to capture and recreate those cooking traditions she shared with her late mother, her inspiration. From Lee family favourites, such as Hong Kong style chicken wings, to vegetable classics like Tofu puff stir fry, you&#39;ll also find more modern creations like her Blackbean stuffed aubergines and green peppers or Garlicky scallops on glass noodles. With traditional dishes prepared in non-traditional ways, and with a classic Suzie twist, these recipes are creative and delicious, and celebrate real Chinese home cooking. Unrestrictive and easy to follow, Simply Chinese shows you how to create authentic-tasting pan-Asian dishes using supermarket ingredients, that are readily available.

Suzie proves Chinese cookery doesn&rsquo;t have to be complicated [...] you can create a huge range of flavoursome dishes.
