Sweet & Sour Chicken Cantonese Style
This recipe uses my basic sweet and sour sauce which you could use for many other Chinese dishes, or just as a dip. You should try the whole recipe first though, as it’s one of my best yet. It’s Cantonese style as the chicken is battered and, although this means more work for you, it pays off in the end. The battered chicken gives the sauce something to stick to and leaves the inside moist and tender.

Chicken and sweetcorn soup
Chicken and sweetcorn soup is an ideal starter for a Chinese meal, or just nice to make as a warming snack. It’s best made with homemade chicken stock, but you could just use stock cubes. Extremely quick to make, but very tasty!
