Now, with treasured family recipes passed down from one daughter to the next, and favorite dishes from the Chen family restaurants, Helen Chen teaches you how to prepare real Chinese food in your own home. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll your favorite Chinese dishes are here -- Peking Ravioli; Cold Noodles, Szechuan Style; Moo Shi Pork; and Sweet and Sour Shrimp -- along with new classics -- Shanghai-style Pork Chops; Crystal Shrimp; and Steamed Salmon with Black Beans. An entire chapter is devoted to innovative vegetable dishes -- Ginger-glazed Carrots and Parsnips; Steamed Eggplant Salad; Sliced Cucumbers with Spicy Peanut Dressing; and Red-mouthed Green Parrot, a preparation of young spinach with the pink roots still attached. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd because the Chinese don't use a lot of oil when they cook at home, these dishes are far lower in fat than Chinese food served in restaurants. These recipes rely on stir-frying more than deep-frying, steaming more than roasting, and on readily available supermarket ingredients, and they use far less meat in favor of more fresh vegetables. If you love Chinese food for its quick cooking, economy, taste, nutrition, and variety, then you'll love having Helen Chen by your side. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e---- \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition: \u003c\/strong\u003eGood condition.
