This is one of my favourite ways to cook salmon when I want an easy, healthy dinner. The bok choy cooks under the salmon and then we pair it with soba noodles for a clean, healthy dinner!

2 - Chinese Roast Chicken

A lot of the time we will use lemon and garlic for roast chicken but then I'll remember my mother's Chinese roast chicken which makes a most wonderful roast but with Chinese flavours like soy sauce, garlic and onions. Served with a plateful of bok choy on the side!

3 - Baked Dumplings with Bok Choy

This is a Tiktok recipe that I really love. There's nothing easier than putting this dumpling bake together. You mix up some coconut milk, red chilli paste and bok choy and then it bakes in the oven!

4 - Mille Feuille Nabe

This mille feuille nabe is something special and great if you need something warming and comforting to eat. This is a hot pot that layers wombok or Chinese cabbage with thinly sliced pork belly. There is no more comforting dish I promise!

5 - Chicken Hor Fun

Chicken Hor Fun is a delicious Chinese "wet" rice noodle dish made with a delectable sauce. It has everything in it from chicken (or use steak!), fresh rice noodles and Chinese vegetables.
