Confinement meal services in London (and the rest of UK) are almost non-existent, yet it’s a service that is highly sought after and much needed for new mums who want to do the month-long confinement to restore their body’s health after the trauma of giving birth.
The fifth and final recipe in this blog series "Chinese Food on a Budget: 5 Family Meals for £16.50" is this Chinese Pork and Leek Lettuce Wraps. It cost £4.25 to make, feeding a young family of 4 and with leftovers too. Rice is not included in the cost of this recipe, so you'll need to factor this in.
The fourth recipe in this blog series "Chinese Food on a Budget: 5 Family Meals for £16.50" is this Gammon and Cabbage Fried Rice. It only cost £2.19 to make the entire dish making it cheapest recipe in this series that will feed a young family of 4 and with leftovers too.
As cost of living continues to rise around the world, budgeting for family meals have become more important than ever. I shared a Part 1 series with 7 recipes for Chinese Food on a Budget and now I'm back with a Part 2 series.
These days, it's rare for me to venture into London for food, and even rarer for me to blog about it. But this restaurant making hand pulled noodles is so good that it warranted two visits from me in a week! If that's not high praise enough... I'm hankering for a third visit so that I can try more of their menu.
For the final recipe in my blog series "Chinese Food on a Budget: Feed a Family of 4 for £30 a week", this Chinese Braised Pork and Potatoes uses up much of the leftover ingredients from the week's shop.
A classic Hong Kong dish that can so easily be made at home. The home version doesn't have to be fancy like the shop-bought ones, so you can leave out the red food colouring and honey glaze. You'll have a tasty family meal ready in no time with minimal effort.
For the third recipe in my blog series "Chinese Food on a Budget: Feed a Family of 4 for £30 a week", I made a quick stir fried noodles using the plentiful of leftover chicken meat from the Chinese 5 spice roast chicken.
Easily one of the simple dinners I have on repeat, this Chinese 5 spice roast chicken is always a hit and can actually be used in a Chinese dinner with rice, or as a roast dinner with potatoes.
Goodness me, how has the time flown so much and I've not posted in 9 months? I miss my blogging space so much but finding the time to write these days is nearly impossible. But anyway, I'm back with a new series of blog posts that I have been wanting to share for a while.
