Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Lemon chicken [stir-fry]

    • mharriman on March 22, 2022

      My husband and I really liked this stir fry. The directions were very straightforward and easy to follow. I liked that Hom gives choices on how to cook the chicken. I chose the oil but reduced it significantly (not sure why you need so much). I used my nonstick wok which helps a lot with stir fry process. I partially steamed 1 1/2 cups of petite green beans and added them to the chicken and sauce at the end. We could taste the lemon and appreciated that it wasn’t overpowering, just a nice subtle flavor with the remainder of the ingredients.

  • Quick orange and lemon chicken [stir-fry]

    • mharriman on April 09, 2022

      This was indeed quick to stir fry. The citrus flavors are pretty subtle. I’d add additional zest as well as fresh lemon and orange juice next time to brighten the flavor outcome. I added 3/4 cup broccoli florets which I’d do again (or another green veg). Otherwise, it’s just stir-fried chicken. Served this over brown jasmine rice and a Korean cucumber salad on the side.

  • Thai-style duck [stir-fry]

    • stepharama1 on April 22, 2022

      Delicious. I added ginger, and subbed kaffir lime leaves for lemongrass. Used vermouth rather than shaoxing wine.
