"This is the recipe as taught in the Main Line School Night [winter, 2005] class on Regional Chinese Cooking by Betty Foo, chef & co-owner of the Hunan Restaurant in Ardmore, PA. Betty and her husband are from Hunan and have returned to visit, so the recipe is authentic to the region, both by family history, by recent comparison, and by my own review..."

"Fabulous easy version of the classic, low fat, low sodium version.

This is from Barbara Kafka's cookbook, "Microwave Gourmet," with only very minor changes. If you don't own this book, I recommend it highly! My copy is about 20 years old, and was one of the first cookbooks I bought as a grown-up."

"This recipe, from "Authentic Recipes from China", is just sensational! While I wouldn't classify it as hot, just gently warm, we didn't add any extra chili oil just because the flavours as written were so perfect. You know you're onto a winner when DH eats a portion for 3 people!"

Ingredients: chili oil, szechuan peppercorns...

"Entered for safe-keeping. From North Dakota Beef Commission, found in "Favorite Brand Name Best-Loved Chinese Recipes and More". This is a toned down version that might be made for a US family."

"This spicy, ground pork and tofu recipe served over white rice really hits the spot for me after a long day. With just a few ingredients, and some quick prep you can have dinner on the table in about a half hour. This is cheaper and more satisfying than any takeout I've ordered the last 10 years.

"This is the best dish I've ever made. If you are only going to make one of my recipes, go for this one.

This recipe calls for store bought kimchi. A lot of Asian groceries make their own. It's best to go for the home made stuff.

To make this vegan, skip the egg."
