Kylie Kwong cooked her first fried rice for her grandmother when she was four. Today, she is a master of Chinese food, her kitchen filled with the tastes, smells and sounds of the exciting recipes she dreams up.
In Kylie Kwong: Simply Magic, she makes delicious dishes from many ingredients: beef, seafood, poultry, duck, eggs, vegetables, noodles, soup, tofu, pickles, rice and wantons. She shows us how to eat with chopsticks, how to make fishcakes and how to stir fry vegetables.
In this eight-part series Kylie travels to the heart of the country that has inspired all her cooking, to two of the world’s most exciting cities, Hong Kong and Shanghai. There she finds the origins of the recipes her grandmother taught her and finds inspiration for new dishes.
Back home in her beautiful Sydney kitchen, Kylie shares her wonderful new cooking ideas with us; she shows us how we can cook authentic Chinese recipes ourselves at home, using ingredients obtainable at any local supermarket.
Kylie Kwong: Simply Magic is a co-production between ABC Enterprises and XYZnetworks and produced by Simon Target Films.

Recipes are delicious, Kylie has inspired my children to cook and what they really love is her fresh food ethos. Recipes are simple enough for most basic cook (like me) but all are simply great!
Food, like language, is adaptable. My wife is 1/4 chinese. We enjoy her family's cooking with GUSTO. Most of it (except for the bitter cucumbers) are great. Kylie does a great job. Why is it necessary to inform the culinary experienced of 1 billion people in China when there is 20 million Aussies, quite happy to cook from her recipes. For the record, I paid a fair price for Kylie's book , Simply Magic, and I am sure I will get a great deal of pleasure from this book. Kylie is Australian, with an informed, great heritage of Chinese blood. Keep cooking your way. Thank you Kylie.
I agree with chinesetongue , my father in law shakes his head when he see her on TV, not real chinese food. Just suped up American chinese
kylie is an inspiring chef i enjoy cooking her recipies
Kylie shocked me with her cooking - i believe that no one cooks onion and beef stirfry her way. i eat and cook chinese food every day, and i can say that what she cooks is not chinese at all. chinese ppl will say that she is cooking western food. i don't think that she cooks every dish in the restaurant kitchen. it's prolly the chefs they hire are good at cooking.
Kylie made this very simple fried rice and man it is the best! I have never bought fried rice from a take away shop since. I make it for every one I know and they all love it! So I tell them my mate Kylie taught me LOL
I went to billy kwong's and the whole table enjoyed every amazing dish! The freshness and flavours were just fantastic, so I'm keen to try out a few recipes at home! I better buy a wok!
yummy!
I watched her show on Friday night and she made these pork rissoles or better known as Lions Mane meaballs. I can't remember the ingredients to this yummy dish - does anyone know where I can find it. Sharon
