Notes & Tips

CHING'S TIPS

To help vegetables cook in the wok, add a splash or two of water to help create some “steam” whilst stir frying.

Use msg free products where possible.

Groundnut oil can be substituted with vegetable oil, sunflower oil or corn oil.

A large number of dishes can be adapted to suit vegetarians. Look out for where you can substitute the meat for tofu or vegetables and use vegetarian sauces.

Use low sodium soy sauce where possible
