Helen's Asian Kitchen: Easy Chinese Stir-Fries

I have this book and have purchased two for gifts. The recipes are fast and easy with few ingredients. The dishes are the ones you will always see on menus in oriental restaurants.

LOVE this book. The recipes are very simple and delicious, each better than the last. Now if my wok will just get here I'll be all set!

I really like this little book. The recipes are quick to make, and have a really nice variety of regional dishes and different ingredients. All of the recipes I've tried are delicious too. Highly recommended.

Really good. Authentic taste.

I own Helen Chen's larger cookbook, "Helen Chen's Chinese Home Cooking" and consider it one of the best Chinese cook books a person could have. Many of the recipes in it have been favorites of mine, and some of the easier ones are duplicated in this slender new volume of stir fries. For the beginning cook, this book may be less daunting. From it, I've now cooked "Garlicky Green Beans"-quite tasty, "Shrimp in Tomato Sauce"-delicious, "Kung Pao Chicken"-yummy and fiery, and ""Kan Shao Green Beans"- stellar. Obviously, I am looking forward to woking my way through the remainder of its pages. I own many other books on Chinese food and cooking, but I can think of few of them as uncomplicated as this which manage to produce such deep, rich, tasty sauces.
