Indian Chilli Paneer is one of the most popular vegetarian dishes in Indian Chinese cuisine, combining crispy paneer with a sweet, salty and spicy stir fry sauce. This Indian Chilli Paneer recipe uses high heat cooking to toast the paneer first, giving it golden edges before coating it in a glossy chilli sauce with onions and peppers.
Chilli Paneer is commonly found in Indian restaurants and street food stalls, where Chinese style sauces are blended with Indian spice and heat. The key is balancing sweetness from ketchup, saltiness from soy and heat from fresh chillies to create that signature jammy coating.

Simple and Delicious Yaki Udon is a classic Japanese stir fried noodle dish built around thick, chewy udon noodles, tender slices of chicken and crisp vegetables. This Simple and Delicious Yaki Udon recipe focuses on wok technique, high heat and allowing the sweet savoury sauce to caramelise gently into the noodles without breaking them.
Yaki Udon is known for its balance of soy, mirin and tonkatsu sauce, giving it a slightly sweet, deeply savoury finish. The key is cooking the noodles until they absorb the sauce completely, leaving them glossy, soft and just on the verge of sticking.
Crispy Vegetarian Spring Rolls
Chinese Vegetable Spring Rolls are a classic takeaway favourite, packed with finely sliced vegetables and wrapped in thin spring roll pastry before being deep fried until golden and crisp. This Chinese Vegetable Spring Rolls recipe follows the traditional method of flash frying the filling first to remove excess moisture, then rolling tightly and frying at 180°C for that signature crunch.
The key to perfect spring rolls is balance. The vegetables must be finely matchsticked, the filling cooked quickly on high heat and cooled before wrapping. A small amount of cornflour helps absorb moisture so the pastry stays crisp during frying.
This Thai Pork Larb is punchy, vibrant and packed with bold flavours from lime, fish sauce, chilli and toasted rice. Warm minced pork is tossed with fresh herbs and aromatics to create a sharp, savoury and refreshing Thai salad.
