Healthy Chinese Recipes

The app contains more than 80 Healthy Chinese Recipes.

Have you ever noticed how some dishes you order at the Chinese restaurant come out of the kitchen somewhat quickly? This isn't because the food is pre-made (or you hope not); it is due to the fact that many Chinese recipes are quick and easy to make, needing a short amount of time on the stovetop.

When cooking at home, the same principle applies. And while some dishes may require a trip to an Asian market, the more basic dishes can be made with ingredients that are available at your local supermarket. The best part is that these recipes are versatile so if you don't have an ingredient, you can just swap it out—or eliminate it completely.

If you stock your kitchen with a few basic ingredients found in many Chinese recipes, you will save money by avoiding take-out. The key to a speedy meal is to prep all your ingredients before turning on the wok.

What makes a recipe easy? Some, like stir-fries, take only minutes to make. Others, such as soups and stews, take longer but still consist of only a few simple steps. This leaves you lots of free time while the food is simmering.

Whether you're new to Chinese cooking or just looking for a recipe that doesn't require too much time in the kitchen, you will find these recipes a breeze.
