NOTICE: Due to a high volume of orders, we cannot guarantee that any order placed after the 10th of December will be dispatched in time for Christmas, we will however try our very best and as of right now with the 5-7 working day backlog on top of the normal dispatch time, we don't want anyone to be under any impression that they will have their order sent before Christmas.
This book has over 120 recipes found in UK Chinese takeaways, and the most likely version you will get, as there are afew ways of making each dish.
This book has been designed like a manual, so if you want Chicken Chow Mein the recipe doesn't ask you to just "swap" out the protien, there are specfic recipes for each, as depending on what your cooking can change the order in which ingredients go into the work, plus its just nice to have a copy of each even if it is just "swap" the protien. This book you has been written so if you wanted too, you could open your own Chinese takeaway using.
Recipe list can be found in the more infomation section.
We are selfpublished so each edition may have errors that are corrected with each edit we make, but the content of the book is not affected.
