oh yeah !!
we have homemade Chinese food, and Thai food two or three times a week here in the jungle.
there are many Chinese immigrants in Belize, and they import all the odd little items one wants, like straw mushrooms, bamboo shoots, water chestnuts, and they make tofu and grow bean sprouts, which we get at the Saturday outdoor market.
here's some nice and EASY Chinese dishes, have a blast, and let us know how it turns out!
Easy Chinese Recipes & Meals
By Rhonda Parkinson, About.com Guide to Chinese Food
What makes a recipe easy? Some, like stir-fries, take only minutes to make. Others, such as soups and stews, take longer but still consist of only a few simple steps, leaving you lots of free time while the food is simmering. Many Chinese recipes are quick, easy to make, or both. Some can be made with ingredients that are available at most local supermarkets, while others may require a trip to a Chinese/Asian market or using a substitute. Whether you're new to Chinese cooking or just looking for a recipe that doesn't require spending too much time in the kitchen, here are a number of recipe ideas.
