The Wok Weekly #135: Shrimp-Stuffed Fried Tofu

The Wok Weekly #135: Shrimp-Stuffed Fried Tofu

These were pretty good! Left ones were fried at a lower temperature by accident, so were more jelly which my toddler loved. Right side is OG method. Made some fried shrimp balls at the bottom with the extra shrimp we had.

The Wok Weekly #134: Korean-Style Spicy Braised Tofu

Almost done with the fried section! This one doesn't look super appetizing, but it was delicious. Doubled the batch and made a less spicy version for the kids. We love Korean so easy win for us

The Wok Weekly #132: Simple Panfried Tofu

Not much to say here. It was good and process was smooth. Looking forward to trying the other variations

The Wok Weekly #131: Orange Peel Beef, By Way of Sichuan and Old New York

This was very good! I didn't have the dried orange peel so used fresh mandarine rind as suggested and the frying process could have gone a little better, but overall I would make his again or more likely try this version at a restaurant. Wasn't too sweet with tons of flavor.

The Wok Weekly #129: Sesame Chicken

Morning folks, I tried my hand at this one and it was good. Went the Popeyes chicken nuggets refry approach which turned out pretty well. Needed to double the sauce considering how many nuggets we had, but the sauced pieces were quite good and mostly crispy. I'd try it again

The Wok Weekly #128: California-Style Orange Chicken

Hi everyone, onto the next one. The family really enjoyed this one and I thought it was quite good too. Had a good hint of orange in the sauce if not a little too much zest and not too sweet.

Tried the OG frying process which went overall well, but I think my batter became too wet at one point and everything started clumping. I would either follow the recipe more closely or remove each piece of battered chicken and add more dry ingredients as needed. Good learning here though.

I would make this again

The Wok Weekly #127: General Tso's Chicken

Howdy folks, back on the wok weekly train, hopefully... This one was quite good. I went the alternative approach using premade chicken nuggets and sauced them as per the recipe. It was pretty good when in a time crunch, but as expected the texture was not as crunchy as if it was fresh. Going to try the OG method for the next recipe and see how that goes.
