Chinese cuisine is immensely popular in the West and, with the growing availability of Chinese and specialist ingredients, it has never been easier to prepare and cook at home. It both looks and tastes delicious, but perhaps the greatest charm - for the family cook, anyway - is that so many dishes can be prepared in minutes. This collection of recipes is a culinary tour of all regions of this vast country. Recipes range from familiar Cantonese favourites to spicy Szechuan dishes, and from sophisticated Peking cuisine to the seafood specialities of Shanghai. Whether you want to create a full Chinese meal, with its balance of varied dishes, flavours and textures, or simply want to ring the changes with something a little different, you should find the recipes you are looking for. Divided into six chapters, all the recipes can be prepared in 15 minutes or even less. From sweet-and-sour dishes, stir-fries, chow meins to steamed parcels, wontons, braised fish and baked seafood.
