Only three more weeks until the premiere of my new show Cook Eat Live.  This recipes comes from a cookbook Christmas gift, The Complete Asian Cookbook Series: China by Charmaine Solomon, and I learned a lot of new techniques that I will continue to use in the rest of my cooking.  For example, frying dried chilies in oil works wonders in making something spicy.  It does mean you need excellent ventilation because the smoke from frying hot peppers is something akin to riot gas.  #whydoesmyskinburn

CookEatLive premieres on YouTube and Facebook on Thursday, May 5th. Subscribe to check out and see all the delicious food that you yourself can start making today!
