I love Chinese food and would like to make a dinner made entirely of it. I have a few recipes, but I have never tried them before so I don't know if they are good. Do you have any recipes that you love? Thanks for your help!

Oh, and nothing raw please :)

Chinese Roast Pork (one of my personal favorites!):

2Lbs (900g) shoulder pork

3T. Sugar, 1.5 T. soy sauce, 1.5 T. cooking wine, 1.5T. Hoisin sauce, 2t. salt. - mix well

cut pork into strips 1.5" wide. Add sugar mixture and marinate overnight.

Preheat oven to 400F (205C), place marinated meat in a roasting pan and roast on oven's middle rack 40 minutes. Remove and slice. Serve with Garlic, Soy Sauce, Seseme oil, ect.

Chilled Cuccumbers with Vinegar and Garlic:

Ingredients:

1 cucumber - (European type is best with fewer seeds)

Rice vinegar - approximately 1 Tblsp (common white vinegar may be used)

Soy Sauce - approximately 2 Tblsp

Sesame oil - 1 Tspn

Garlic - to taste

Preparation:

All of these ingredients can be used to taste, and quantities should also be determined by the size of the cucumbers used. Break up the cucumber into bite size pieces, then put all the pieces into a bowl. Chop garlic fine, and put the garlic in the bowl with the cucumber. Add soy sauce, sesame oil, and vinegar to bowl. Cover the bowl and shake it up. Eat this dish soon after preparation or it will become soggy.

Stir Fried Bean sprouts:

2/3Lbs bean sprouts
1T. chopped green onion

3T water
1/4 t. salt

wash bean sprouts
heat 1.5 T. oil in Wok. Add all ingredients. Cover and cook until steamy. Stir-fry briefly then remove.
- I usally also add a little bit of rice wine, and soy sauce (use less salt (like a pinch) if you add soy sauce) during the stir-fry portion.


Sweet and Sour Pork
1/2 Lb pork

1 egg yolk, 1/2T soy sauce - mixed together

6T. Cornstarch
oil for deep frying
1/2 t. chopped garlic

Total of 2 c. (cut into peices) onion, tomato (or pineapple or carrot), green pepper

3 T each of sugar, water, vinegar
2 T. Ketchup
1/2 t. salt, 1.5 t cornstarch - mix all of these together

-Cut meat into bite sized peices; tenderize. Mix in yolk/soysauce mix. Drege in cornstarch before deep frying.
-heat oil; deep fry meat 6 minutes or until cooked and surface is crispy. Remove and Drain. Remove oil from wok
-Heat 1 T. oil. Stir fry garlic until fagrant. Add veggies; stir fry briefly. add sugar/water/niegar/ketchup/cornstarch mixture and bring to a boil. Add fried meat and toss ligtly. remove and serve.

I have tried all of these, and they are all really good. good luck with the dinner!

Most chinese dish is not raw. Only certain japanese sushi is raw.

You can try with simple dish for a start.
1 Steam fish.
Place a few slice of ginger, salted vegetable, sour plums, tomato slice at the base. Place the fish on top and steam for 10 mins. (medium size fish). Blend some soy sauce and sesame oil to pour on the fish when cook. Garnish with spring onion and chinese parsley.

2 Fried vegetables
Dice some garlic. Heat the oil and stir fry it till fragrance. Add the vegetables of your choice, season with a little bit of salt and stir fry it. Add a bit of water if its too dry.

3 Bean Curd Skin
No seasoning required. Cut bean curd skin into desired size and wrap it into a spring roll to be steam. You can have bacon strip, ham, carrots, cucumber, egg, seaweed, whatever your favourites to be wrap inside. Bean curd skin is salty so be careful about the chosen ingredient inside the wrap. You can deep fry it after steaming it. The skin will turn crispy and nicer.

Hope it helps.
