Filed under Appetizers
XO sauce is a one of those sauces that if you consider the individual ingredients, you may find it a little odd. That said, once you cook with it you will realize that it gives a flavour that really cannot be duplicated. The XO sauce that I used for this dish was not particularly spicy, [...]

I won’t lie to you these are fiddly to make, but they are not a painful as you would think and once you get on a roll you can knock them out quite quickly. You can make them an hour or so in advance and store them in the refrigerator, but make sure you bring [...]

I generally go for big flavour in my recipes, so this one is unusual for me because it is quite subtle. It is still a wonderful dish and the element of it that appeals to my husband the most, is that because it is so low in fat and calories, he can have double helpings. [...]
