Summary: aw... try to find it...
Comment: I lucked out... i don't know where I got this book from... either my mom or my aunt- but i sure am glad I got a copy! I think it's funny in the fact that each of the recipes is like ordering Chinese "fast food" - in a restaurant these would be called- chicken bowl, beef bowl, pork bowl. Honestly I've never made the recipes in the small portions that it gives you- which is generally enough for 2 people. I've always doubled the recipes and used them in family style meals- because I don't believe in eating one thing on top of rice! The rice is the bulk of the food you eat- with all the other dishes being condiments to your rice!
I also like the noodle soups in the back of the book- one of them is similiar to hong kong style egg noodles with beef brisket.

For someone who lives alone and buys food everyday to prepare- opposed to a well stocked pantry- these one dish meals are pretty expensive to make. These recipes seem best prepared by people who stock their refrigerators and need a quick fix dinner made out of stuff you already have.

Summary: Too bad it's out of print. . .
Comment: Many of my favorite recipes are contained in this book. I own several books by the author and have found all recipes to be authentically yummy and different. I would be hard-pressed to find similar dishes in your every-day Chinese restaurant unless it specialized in authentic food.
The only downfall is that many supermarkets do not stock the key ingredients for many recipes and so I only get to make them with poor substitutes or wait until I have the chance to go to a Chinese Supermarket.

It's really a pity that it's out of print because it's an excellent cookbook with lots of photos and clear instructions. Many recipes have very few steps in them and would take a skilled cook 40 minutes at the most to prepare from food preparation to dinner table.

Summary: Yummy!
Comment: This is one of my favorite cookbooks. Many of my favorite Oriental dishes are included, with large full-color photos. Cooking and preparation technique is also covered at the beginning of the book, and many recipes have very few steps outside of shredding vegetables or cubing meat or bean curd.
I own a couple of other books by this author and she is one of the best authors of Chinese cooking. Her recipes are consistant, easy-to-follow, and her instructions are completely clear. Anyone from the beginner to the well-advanced cook should try this book!
