I love this cookbook. I started watching Kylie's show on Discovery and have gotten both her cookbooks. I am currently working my way through the recipes and have yet to find one my family doesn't like. Plus, I love to just sit down and read her stories, she writes so vividly you feel like you are right there with her. I especially like the listing in the back of the products she uses, and the brands she recommends. It made it much easier to go my local Asian store and find exactly what I needed. The only problem is having to translate cooking temperatures from celcius to farenheit and she uses grams instead of ounces/pounds in the measurements. BUT, it is worth the few minutes hassle of converting to what I need, so I don't really mind it too much.

The recipes are great. Lots of variety and easy to follow, even for a beginner like me...

Just have peanut oil and ginger available, it's in almost all her recipes, and your good to go.

Enjoy!

Kylie is inventive and fun. Her stories made me read her book cover to cover!

This is the second book from Kylie Kwong I bought. We tried about a half of the recipes ourselves already. So far I did not found a single recipe I don't like.

One of her recipe becomes my absolutely favorite.

What I really miss is her show I was watching a couple of years back on Discovery Home.

Kylie love for her family and her cooking shows on every page and her simple but mastery recipies makes you want to cook chinese as often as you could. Enjoy !
