Chinese New Year Recipes

Chinese New Year is a good excuse to try out some Chinese recipes with your family, and we have a selection of easy family favorites below.

Chow Fan (Chinese Fried Rice)
I was brought up in Hong Kong and "Chow Fan" was one of our favorite family meals. The recipe I have given here is a very "anglicized" version, and of course you can adapt it endlessly by adding your own family's favorite vegetables and meats - or using up any leftovers. Most children love it, so make it in large quantities!

Sweet and Sour Chicken NEW!
"Sweet and sour" was a classic Chinese dish in the 1980s, but that was because it has always been so popular with the family market! Kids love the sweet taste (from the pineapple chunks) and it is sure to become a family favourite.

Home-made fortune cookies
Fortune cookies are a fun way to end a family meal, and easily bought in most Chinese supermarkets. But they are also fun to make - and if you make them yourself you will be able to add your own "fortunes" (or get the kids to write some out to include, which is sure to get them giggling).
