Notes about this book

  • debbyc on December 26, 2014

    "combination of best mates" is how Dan Hong describes one recipe but it could be used for them all, as there are tantalising mixtures of some of your favourite foods and ingredient served in one dish. Lots of the recipes have an Asian slant but his recipes use ingredients from all over the world, each one adding an extra layer of yumminess to some of the greatest comfort/favourite dishes known. Don't be put off by the large number of ingredients in some recipes, this is due to Dan making his own stocks and sauces, but once a batch (12 litres of master stock!) is made, it will be used in many recipes, and will become your store cupboard favourite.

Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Prawn toast with yuzu mayonnaise, coriander and mint

    • Therese on October 19, 2016

      Easy impressive recipe. If anything I'd add more coriander and a touch of fish sauce to the mousse. Didn't do the yuzu mayo. Made my own kimchi mayo instead ??.

      The best prawn toast you’ll ever make. Impressive to serve as an entree to guests. Note sauce quantities in this book are huge. They also freeze well so you can make them in advance and fry them on the day.

  • Lemongrass beef taco

    • claudia_4o6vvr on April 04, 2026

      The lemongrass is to be bashed and left to infuse the beef. Super tasty

  • Kung pao chicken

    • KarinaFrancis on November 05, 2020

      Omg so good! All the flavours you want in a Sichuan dish and easy to do on a weeknight. A repeat for sure.

      Have been making this regularly for years. So delicious. Can use normal japanese miso in a pinch.

  • Wok-fried mushrooms with warrigal greens

    • claudia_4o6vvr on April 04, 2026

      So delicious!!! A great vegetable side in a chinese banquet

  • Crispy eggplant with fish fragrant sauce

    • h0lly on May 22, 2025

      Just mail order what you’ve got to mail order and make this dish. It’s unbelievably delicious. My subs: rice vinegar for red vinegar, kecap manis for soy paste. Tried it with (salted and dried) firm tofu too and it was another winner. Caveat: I have a deep fryer.

    This is the book I reach for when I’m after some serious deliciousness. From ‘secret’ tacos to amazing curries I love Hong’s work. Definitely a lot more than 5 ingredients though.
