October 2023 Cookbook of the Month: Woks of Life Cookbook and Blog

I’ve got chicken marinating for steamed chicken & rice, but in the meantime here are some of my repeats from the blog:

Cantonese white-cut (poached) chicken (so much more than it sounds like: silky chicken, and the ginger scallion sauce is fantastic with everything)

Hainanese chicken and rice (very similar to the above, just more condiments and rice cooked in the chicken broth)

Soy sauce chicken (another easy poached recipe, but a totally different flavor)

Chicken and mushrooms clay pot rice rice (very little hands-on time and very flavorful; I use a small pressure cooker without the weight instead of a clay pot)

Steamed chicken and mushrooms / lily buds (I still haven’t used lily buds but it’s great with dried shiitakes and black fungus)

Curry chicken noodle soup (quick and tasty)

Beef chow fun (better than most takeout; the hardest part is sourcing the fresh noodles)

Singapore mei fun (very forgiving of substitutions)
