Chicken Egg Foo Young
Egg Foo Young is an amazing dish but unfortunately every time I have had it in a Chinese here it has been terrible and more like a bad omelette than a delicious Egg Foo Young should be. I am not a fan of the taste of eggs, I will only eat the yolk usually. This […]

Buttermilk Fried Chicken & Gravy – GF
We all love fried chicken especially when it is juicy on the inside with a deliscious crisp coating. For many it can be difficult to get it right and so they end up with tough dry chicken. Brining the meat before cooking helps prevent the chicken frying out when cooking and so you end up […]
