Ni hao..! Chi fan le mei you?
You must be wondering.. what am I talking? Well to start with my todays title -
'huanying ni lai Zhongua...!' meaning 'Welcome to China..!' Yes I'm talking chinese.. :)
Chinese don't typically ask "how are you?" as a follow up to "hello." Their pleasantries are usually "hello" followed by "have you eaten?" (if it is near a mealtime). So as I mentioned in the start of this post
Ni hao means hello
Ni hao means hello
Chi fan le mei you? means have you eaten?
Yes, you are thinking right.. today Im going to give you a super fast Chinese recipe.
Chinese cuisine is loved by people in all countries and all walks of life. People appreciate Chinese food for its combination of superb taste & afford-ability. It is no longer a foreign food that is difficult to understand & cook. Infact chinese cuisine is easy, fast & convenient to make at the comfort of ones home.
One more tempting fact about this cuisine is that it brings a flavor to the table for everyone. From sweet n sour to spicy & tangy.. it has all..!
Not to forget that colour, aroma & flavor are not the only key elements of chinese cooking; nutrition is also a priority.
Hence, it is a full package of taste n health with a minimum of cooking time..!
Also its my Hubby's favourite cuisine.. He can have it every single day! :) And here is one such basic main course in Chinese & his fav. dish that I cook

Then add some capsicum, carrots, some french beans, then add the cabbage. Stir fry the vegetables but not overdone. Then add spinach. Mix with the other veggies. Add 3 tbsp of all in one sauce, 1tsp of soya sauce, 1tbsp of shezwan sauce. Mix well. Each piece of vegetable needs to get coated with the sauces. Add Mushrooms & chilli vinegar. Add some water.
