Hi MrRigatoni

I have some Five Spice Powder, so I'll think about giving your 'Chinese Chicken' recipe a go - it sounds very tasty. Thanks for sharing those recipes.

Hello good morning to you thought give you some more ideas.

Five Spice Powder happy to.

The most common dish in Chinese Restaurants is Chow Mein using Mince but I make this with.

Meatballs Pork ones available supermarkets ready made. Also Pork Shoulder steaks or use Chicken Thigh.

Basically this the one pot Chinese meals used up anything fridge.

You need Onions.

Five Spice Powder to taste.

I use half teaspoon.

Chillies, Ginger Garlic use jars simply easier buy Purees of all these tubes.

One teaspoon each or adapt.

Any veggies I buy these Chinese frozen veggies can purchase. Matter of choice just add to sauce or add end defrost to a bowl. Add boiling water and pour drain and allow to .

Find some veggies frozen easier to addlater these contain Mushrooms get too soggy if add to sauce earlier.

Use Passata tomato based product.

Stock cube made up.

Use my Slow Cooker set it up and used after four hours added to noodles broken up.

So helps.

Other ones same spice mix.

Spicy Beef.

Pack of Beef Mince everything as added before Chow Mein but add in Peppers.

Mushrooms.

Chilli Garlic, Ginger.

Passata.

Five Spice Powder.

Add the same measurments could add here Sweet Chilli Sauce or Soy many recipes all of these different ones find one you like make it your own.

This my one for Children.

Tomato Chicken based on a mix of some of the Chinese recipes.

All my favourite veggies plus takes minutes in the stir fry pan or wok or whatever you have.

Need the following left over Chicken or use cooked ones Thighs.

Onions.

Five Spice Powder to taste.

Passata carton, tin cherry tomatoes.

Mushrooms any sliced.

Peppers any frozen fresh your choice.

Ginger, Garlic puree or use a jar to taste I use half teaspoon no chilli .

Can add if you wish to.

Stock cube made up.

Soy sauce a dash

Note I added Stock cube to saute pan added boiling water often do that saves measuring.

Add to the pan Chicken cooked or Prawns whatever you have.

Use here Noodles to Wok , pre vacuumed packed cooked Noodles. No water.

Get thick ones all sorts, look on line.

Also use this with Microwave Rice pre cook fitst if you wish to or add to pan.

Just some ideas.

One tip next time if you visit a Chinese ask them anything the staff.

Will help interested any time be amicable.

Done this asked Italians and Indian cooks chefs staff working in restaurants they always friendly.

I do hence the recipes these are the result.

Chinese food restaurants tailored British Tastes often simple one pots few ingredients.

Please take care
