Chicken and Rice

Fresh and Easy Southeast Asian Recipes From a London Kitchen

Summary

Southeast Asian food is fresh, easy and full of unforgettable flavours: Chicken and Rice will show you just how simple it is to make at home.

Shu Han Lee moved to London from Singapore as a student. Homesick and hungry, she started teaching herself to cook the food she'd grown up with - Singaporean and Malaysian dishes, with a strong Chinese influence from her mother.

Chicken and Rice features the perfect midweek suppers rustled up in less time than it takes to order a takeaway (that are healthier and better tasting too), including FENNEL AND MINCED PORK STIR-FRY or TOM YUM SOUP WITH MUSSELS. Or for weekends, there are more adventurous projects such as lessons in making your own STEAMED BUNS and EGG NOODLES!

With a seasonal approach to the very best of UK produce, these are recipes you'll return to time and time again.
