    Delicious & Simple Thai Style Pork Patties

    Thai Style Pork Patties are fragrant, juicy meat patties inspired by the flavours of Thai larb. Minced pork is mixed with finely chopped aromatics such as lemongrass, garlic, ginger and kaffir lime leaves, then combined with toasted rice powder for a distinctive nutty crunch. These patties are pan fried until golden and slightly crisp on the outside while remaining juicy and aromatic inside. Served with sweet chilli sauce, they make a simple but flavour packed dish perfect with rice or as a snack.

    The Best Prawn Toast Ever

    The Best Prawn Toast Ever is a chunky, rustic British Chinese takeaway classic made with generously seasoned prawn filling pressed into hollowed baguette and pan fried until golden and crisp. This The Best Prawn Toast Ever recipe focuses on maximising prawn content, keeping texture coarse rather than paste-like, and pan frying instead of deep frying for better control at home.

    Prawn toast is believed to have evolved in British Chinese kitchens, blending Western bread with Chinese prawn paste techniques. By hollowing out stale baguette and packing it with fresh prawns, garlic and herbs, you get a far superior result to typical takeaway versions.

    How to Steam Without a Bamboo Steamer

    Bao Bun Steaming Techniques

    Steaming is the gold standard method for cooking bao buns and dim sum. A traditional bamboo steamer naturally absorbs excess condensation, preventing water from dripping back onto your food. However, if you do not own a bamboo steamer, there are several effective alternatives that will still give you light, fluffy bao without sogginess.

    The key principle is controlling condensation. Any flat metal or glass lid will collect steam, which then drips back down onto the bao. Managing that moisture is the difference between perfect bao and soggy buns.
