A time to cook, celebrate and enjoy one of the most important festivals in Singapore, Chinese New Year is a time where traditional recipes are in focus and festive delights prevail. Chef Yong brings to you a series of modern Chinese flavours with traditional touches for this year’s CNY cookout.
Cold Mushroom Salad with Pine Nuts
Start your Luna New Year Menu with this classic Shanghainese delicious cold appetizer of various mushrooms in a light soy dressing with pine nuts. It is simple, healthy and easy to prepare.
General Tso’s Chicken
Basically a sweet and sour chicken dish initially thought to be part of Hunanese cuisine. Interestingly this dish does not exist in traditional Chinese cuisine but was so popularized by immigrant Chinese chefs in America that the rest of the world started to catch on with it. It is a must try.
Poached Fish Fillet with Pickled Radish Topping
One of Chef Yong’s favourite recipe, this is a great tasting dish as the topping of pickled radish is a recipe that pairs well with many different types of fishes. Chef Yong shares a different recipe of having the fish fillets poached in a wine flavoured stock than the usual steaming method.
