Honey walnut shrimp is a super popular Chinese takeout dish that can be bit pricey to order often. With our recipe, you can now easily make it at home in 20 minutes when you have the cravings or for special occasions at a lower cost! Enjoy this honey walnut shrimps with some shrimp fried rice or simple egg fried rice to complete the meal!

Honey Walnut Shrimp

shrimps

Shaoxing cooking wine ((optional))

cornstarch (or potato starch)

potato starch (packed)

oil (any neutral oil

Kewpie mayo (or regular mayo)

condensed milk

lemon juice ((optional))

walnut (halves

sugar

In a bowl, season shrimps with Shaoxing rice wine and salt. Mix until well combined.

Add the cornstarch and mix until the shrimps are evenly coated. Set aside to marinade while you prepare the other ingredients.

Marinade the shrimps:

In a medium size pan over medium heat, combine the granulated sugar and water. Bring to a simmer and let the sugar cook until it becomes an amber color. Stir occasionally if necessary.*Be very careful as the sugar will be super hot! Also, keep a close eye on the sugar once it becomes golden in color. It can go from amber to burnt in seconds.*

Once the sugar caramelized to an amber color, add the walnut and mix until all the nuts are well coated.

Immediately transfer the candied walnuts to a parchment paper and separate the nuts as best as possible. Set the candied walnuts aside and let them cool until needed.

Make the candied walnuts:

Into a large pan, combine the mayo, condensed milk, honey, and optionally, lemon juice. Mix until well combined. Set the sauce aside until needed.

Prepare the sauce:

In a mixing bowl, combine the potato starch, egg, and oil. Mix thoroughly until smooth and well combined.

Add the marinated shrimps and mix until all the shrimps are evenly coated with batter.

Batter the shrimps:

Heat 1 to 2 inches of oil in a wok or pan to 375°F. Also prepare a plate lined with paper towels.

Once the oil is hot, carefully place the shrimps into the oil, one at a time. Fry in batches if needed. Let the shrimps fry for about 3 to 5 minutes, until the shrimps are just cooked and looks golden. Remove the shrimps from the oil and let it drain on the prepared plate with paper towels.

When all of the shrimps are fried, heat the prepared sauce over medium heat until warm. Turn off the heat and add the shrimps along with the candied walnuts. Toss until everything is evenly coated.

Serve the honey walnut shrimps immediately and enjoy with some steamed broccoli and/or rice!

This Chinese chicken and broccoli stir fry tastes just like, if not better, than Chinese takeout! It&#039;s super easy to make and now you can make it at home in less than 30 minutes! This easy chicken stir fry recipe is great with some white rice or egg fried rice. If you prefer beef, you can try our beef and broccoli instead!

Chinese Chicken and Broccoli

chicken breast (cut into ¼ inch slices (about 2 chicken breast))

Shaoxing cooking wine

baking soda

soy sauce (light sodium)

sesame oil

broccoli

garlic (minced (about 4 cloves))

ginger (minced (about an 1½ inch knob))

In a mixing bowl, first combine the sliced chicken breast, water, shaoxing rice wine, salt and baking soda. Mix well until the chicken has absorbed most of the liquids.

Next add the cornstarch and mix until the chicken pieces are well coated. Finish the marinade by adding the oil. Mix until evenly combined. Set the chicken aside to marinate for about 10 to 15 minutes as you prepare the rest of the ingredients or let the chicken marinate overnight.

Marinate the chicken:

In a bowl or large measuring cup, combine all of the ingredients for the sauce (soy sauce, water, sugar, cornstarch, and sesame oil). Whisk well until no more clumps of cornstarch is visible. Set aside until needed.*If you prefer a thicker sauce, use 1 to 2 teaspoons extra cornstarch.*

Bring a pot of water to a boil and add the broccoli florets. Cook the broccoli for about 30 seconds to 3 minutes, depending on your preferred tenderness. The cook time will also depend on how big the broccoli florets are. Once cooked, drain the broccoli and set aside.*We usually boil our broccoli for about 1 minute because we like it more on the crisp side.*

In a wok or sauté pan over medium high heat, add enough oil to generously coat the bottom. Once the oil is hot, add the marinated chicken and cook on both sides until the chicken is cooked through. Remove from the wok/pan and set aside.*The chicken doesn&#39;t need to have color, but if you prefer, you can sear the chicken until golden brown. Do make sure to separate the chicken so that it gets evenly cooked, and cook in small batches if necessary.*

Reduce the heat to medium and keep about 2 tablespoons of oil in the pan. Drain excess oil if necessary. Add the minced garlic and ginger and sauté until fragrant, about 15 to 30 seconds.

Give the prepared stir fry sauce a good stir and pour it into the pan with the garlic and ginger. Let the sauce heat up until it starts to simmer and the sauce looks thickened and glossy. Make sure to stir frequently to prevent the sauce from scorching on the bottom.

Once the sauce looks thick and glossy throughout, reduce the heat to low and add the chicken and the broccoli florets. Toss until everything is well coated with sauce.

Serve with rice and enjoy while hot!

Make the chicken and broccoli:

Easy Sesame Chicken

chicken

Toasted sesame seed ((for garnish))

ketchup

white vinegar

soy sauce ((optional

green onion

Oil (as needed for cooking and frying)

Marinate the chicken thighs:In a large mixing bowl, combine the prepared chicken thighs, water, baking soda, and salt. Vigorously mix until the water is mostly absorbed by the chicken.

Once the chicken has mostly absorbed the water, add the eggs and mix until well combined. Following, add the cornstarch and mix until evenly combined and no more dry cornstarch is visible. Finish by adding the oil and mixing until evenly combined.

Heat the oil:In a wok or tall pan, add about 2 to 3 inches of oil. Heat the oil until it reaches 375°F.

Prepare the sauce:While the oil is heating up, prepare the sesame chicken sauce. In a bowl or large measuring cup, combine the ketchup, water, sugar, vinegar, cornstarch, soy sauce, and dark soy sauce. Mix well and set aside. You can also make the sauce ahead of time.

Fry the chicken:When the oil is heated, maintain the heat around 375°F. With your hand or your gloved hand, gently place the marinated chicken pieces into the hot oil, one at a time until the there&#39;s an even layer. Don&#39;t overcrowd the pan and fry in batches if needed! Fry the chicken pieces for about 4 to 5 minutes, then remove the chicken out of the oil and let drain for about 2 to 3 minutes. While frying, occasionally stir the chicken pieces and try to break up any pieces that are stuck together.

Make sure the oil is back at 375°F and add the fried chicken pieces into the oil for a second fry. Let the chicken pieces fry for another 5 to 6 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the oil and let the fried chicken drain on paper towels or a rack.

Make the sauce:In a wok or large pan over medium heat, add a small amount of oil. Add the white parts of the sliced green onions and stir fry for 10 to 15 seconds or until fragrant.

Give the prepared sauce a mix and pour it into the wok. Increase the heat to medium high and let the sauce heat until hot and bubbles. Make sure to stir the sauce frequently, especially when the sauce is getting hot so the cornstarch can thicken the sauce evenly.

Toss the chicken and serve:Once the sauce has thickened and looks glossy, add the fried chicken pieces and stir and toss until the chicken is evenly and well coated.

Serve immediately with white rice or fried rice and garnish the sesame chicken with sesame seeds and the green part of the sliced green onion if you wish. Enjoy!

This Chinese eggplant with minced ‘pork’ recipe is a simple yet tasty one. The humble eggplant is elevated with a tasty sauce, numbing heat from Sichuan peppercorns, and added texture &amp; flavour from minced ‘pork’ (plant-based ground in this case). The silky texture from eggplants and its ability to absorb flavours from the sauce all perfectly comes together in this ma main dish that you can easily prepare to share with friends and family. This is perfect with a bowl of steamed rice for a really satisfying meal.

Spicy Eggplant with Minced ‘Pork’

Chinese eggplants (, around 500 g (17.5 oz))

tbsp white vinegar

Chinese black vinegar

soy sauce

tbsp sugar

tbsp doubanjiang

tbsp corn starch

tbsp neutral oil (, divided)

ginger

garlic (minced)

vegan mince

red chiles (, I used bird’s eye chiles)

tbsp vegetarian oyster sauce (to season if needed (see notes))

pepper

tbsp chili oil

Cilantro onions

rice

Prepare a large bowl for the eggplants. Add the water and vinegar then mix for the eggplants.

Slice the eggplants into batons, around 3 inches in length and 1 inch thick. Place the eggplant skin side down into the large bowl with the water and vinegar mixture. This will help retain the purple hue of the eggplants even after cooking. You can also mix the eggplants after every 5 minutes to be sure that all pieces touch the vinegared water. Leave the eggplants to sit in the water for 10-15 minutes.

SOAK EGGPLANTS

Meanwhile, prepare the sauce mixture by mixing all the ingredients together in a small bowl. Mix everything until the cornstarch has dissolved. Set aside.

PREPARE THE SAUCE

If using TVP, rehydrate the TVP by soaking in hot water until doubled in size. If using mushrooms, dice or mince the mushrooms.

Heat a large wok or skillet over medium high. Add in 1 tbsp oil. Once hot, add in the garlic and ginger and sauté for a minute or until aromatic. Add in the vegan mince/TVP/mushrooms and leave to cook for 2-3 minutes.

If using mushrooms, it’s best to cook these on high heat and leave it to brown on all sides. Cooking the mushrooms on high heat allows for extra moisture to draw while getting a nice sear.

Add in the red chiles and sichuan peppercorn and sauté as well. Season the vegan mince/TVP/mushrooms, if needed, to taste. the Remove the vegan mince/TVP/mushrooms from the wok or skillet and set aside.

Drain eggplant from the water. Pat dry with a kitchen towel.

Heat the same wok or skillet over medium high then add in 2 tbsp oil. Once hot, add some of the eggplant. You can add the eggplant flesh-side down first and flip to cook the remaining sides.

Cook the eggplant over medium high until slightly browned and tender, but not overcooked. Don’t overcook the eggplant at this stage since you’ll cook it down in the sauce later on.

Do note that overcooking the eggplant will cause the skin to turn brown so be sure not to overcook these.

Set aside the eggplant and cook the rest in batches (if needed).

Once all the eggplant is cooked, return the eggplant into the wok/skillet. Mix the sauce again to ensure the corn starch is well incorporated in the sauce.

Over medium heat, add all the eggplant and vegan mince/TVP/mushrooms into the pan. Pour over the sauce and mix well to coat each piece in the sauce. The sauce will start to thicken from the corn starch.

Leave eggplant to cook over medium high heat until tender and silky to your liking.

Add in the chili oil and season the eggplant with soy sauce/vegetarian oyster sauce, if needed, to taste.

Turn off the heat. Serve and enjoy with rice. Garnish with green onions and cilantro if desired.
