About The Book
Make your favorite Chinese dishes at home.
Don’t get a takeout, make your own! From hugely popular online recipe creator Emma Chung @iam.chungry comes this must-have cookbook for anyone who loves to eat Chinese food. Brought up in Hong Kong and Shanghai, Emma knows the very best meals to cook and eat and, with these recipes, she shows you just how simple it is to whip up your own Sweet and Sour Pork, Crispy Chile Beef or Mapo Tofu . . . it's easier than you might think!
From weeknight winners and takeout-style favorites to delightful dumplings and top-notch noodles—this cookbook is packed with easy-to-follow recipes, many of which include veggie and/or vegan alternatives as well as useful air-fryer options. So, no matter how confident you are in the kitchen, if you enjoy eating Chinese food, discover how easy it is to make old and new favorites including:
Crispy Pork Chop with Soup Noodles
Bang Bang Shrimp
Lemon Chicken
Chicken with Ginger and Scallion Sauce
Cantonese-Style Eggplants
Emma says: "In Mandarin, we use the term jiā cháng cài 家常菜 to describe home-style cooking. This type of food is unpretentious, delicious and deeply intertwined with the comfort of being at home. Having spent many years living abroad, this is the type of food I crave when I’m homesick. I don’t believe you need lots of time, money or equipment to make delicious Chinese food. That’s why this book is a collection of recipes that are easy, approachable and adaptable. Recipes that ANYONE, even those with limited time, space, budget or even cooking skills, can make at home."

Raves and Reviews
“Chung, who posts to TikTok as @iam.chungry, aims to inspire ‘even those with limited time, space, budget or even cooking skills’ in her debut collection ... The dishes themselves are appetizing and often come together quickly ... Vegan and vegetarian fare abounds (mapo tofu, dan dan noodles with mushroom instead of pork), as does seafood (prawn vermicelli, whole steamed fish) ... There are a lot of tasty offerings.”
