Asia Chicken Salad
Submitted by David McCarthy, Australia
This Asia Chicken Salad recipe brings the sweet and sour taste of the Orient into your dining room. It compliments a western dish as a side salad or is delicious when served alone as a healthy lunch.
All Asian salads seem to be a little more authentic when served in bamboo dishes that can be bought cheaply in Asian food stores.
A good chef always has the best tools. You need good quality knives and utensils as well as saucepans, skillets and fry-pans. It is better to build the toolkit that suits you slowly over a year or two than to accept second best.
