Chinese Cuisine
About Chinese Food
Chinese cuisine is familiar to Australians and a recent survey found that two thirds of Australian households own a wok and use it regularly, but not everyone knows how to use it properly. With authentic ingredients now being more widely available it is possible to cook recipes that once were only available in restaurants.
The spread of traditional Chinese food began with Cantonese style cooking from the south of China and includes instantly recognisable dishes such as stir-fries, sweet & sour and chop suey. In recent years Northern style and spicier food from Szechuan and Shanghai have followed.

Hot Tips
Using a Tajine
Layer celery stalks on base of tajine before filling with meats etc. This acts as a trivet, lifting the meat off the base of the dish and prevents burning.
