Lunar New Year is a significant cultural event celebrated by many Asian communities. Here is a compilation of the commonly eaten foods as well as a curation of recipes for you to replicate at home.
Dan Dan Noodles is a dish that hails from the Sichuan province in China. You might have heard of Sichuan because that’s where those crazy chilli peppercorns that create an almost-numbing sensation are from. Are they in this recipe? YOU BETCHA! Dan Dan noodles are traditionally topped with chilli oil, delicious umami noodle sauce, crumbled pork mince cooked with preserved mustard stems and some sort of steamed or blanched dark leafy greens.
Umami-filled with thick luscious sauce, this Vegan Braised Mushrooms and Broccoli is dinner ready in 30 minutes and is a sure to please and impress the family. Best enjoyed with a steaming hot bowl of rice.
