These recipes are easy and quick.
I love Chinese food so much that I used to order it at least twice a week. When I’d finally put on around 5 kilos, I visited my dietician who made me realize that my ‘oriental’ taste buds were to be blamed. I tried giving it up for a while but succumbed to my temptation often. This led me to do some research myself and zero in on some delicious low-cal chinese recipes. I’m not the type who loves to cook, but these recipes are easy and quick. Just put on some dance music in the kitchen, dance and try these recipes!
P.S: Do try the spicy sesame noodles. It’s my favourite in the list.
