Jumbo Char Sui Pancake Rolls Video & Written Recipe
Working with the number one premier growers of beansprouts, this is the first video recipe collaboration we've done with them. And we wanted to make our favourite bean recipe as the first colab we've done with them, this is just how we make them, many takeaways will call these chop suey rolls and just have vegetables, or just bean sprouts with shrimp, chicken and ham, this is just the recipe I grew up making in the Chinese takeaway I grew up in. Ingredients: will make 4-5 rol

The MOST Tender Chinese Takeaway Beef Video & Written Recipe
Its been nearly a decade since the first velveting video we've ever made, so we thought we'd show you the 2 major ways that Chinese takeaways, takeouts and restaurants will tenderise their beef.

Shredded Smoked Chilli Chicken Video & Written Recipe
This is one of the modern day classic of a Chinese takeaway/takeout menu, mainly found in the UK, its packed full of rich flavour and punchy garlic, if you like salt and pepper chicken, this is a dish to try. We have done a variation of this in past videos, but this is our preferred method as its simple and because of that, this recipe hits hard with minimum of effort.

Old School Sweet & Sour Sauce Video & Written Recipe
We first made this sweet and sour sauce video in January 2017, nearly a decade ago! It's the old school version you don't see in many Chinese takeaways anymore, now there are literally 100s of variation to this recipe, but this is the one I grew up making in the takeaway I grew up, so naturally it holds a soft spot for us. This recipe makes 500-600ml, store in fridge unthicken, then thicken as and when you want to use it. Pre order our cook book by clicking here https://geni.
