Chinese Scallops and Broccoli

2020-04-30T10:53:55+01:00

We've voted Scallops to be our number one favourite seafood dish for Summer. Diced garlic, ginger and a dash of rice wine enhance the flavours of those tempting bay scallops. The succulent juices are what give this dish its character. In the photo you see here, we've presented a mix of scallops and shrimp, decked with spring onions, broccoli florets, carrot and Chinese mushroom.

And if you'd rather have something soft and chilled, try our sparkling elderflower! Scallops are [...]

It's a week till Father's Day. Yes, it's that time of year again where our dads get to take center stage.

Emerald Greens

The foods from our youth always stay with us. I remember these beautiful greens that were available in abundance when I was a child. Morning glory and Kai Lan - these emerald greens that make up a bulk of my diet till date. Each of the Chinese vegetables have its own unique character. They become more pronounced when they are cooked, releasing their distinct flavour. It matters how each one is prepared to complement the dish. Here are some delicious Chinese vegetables accompaniments that also make for a healthy detox: Spinach and goji berry - perfect in a soup or a salad. During the winter, we prepare [...]
