San Choy Bau
San choy bau is often a go-to when we eat out. But once I found out how easy it is to make at home this has become one of my favourite weeknight meals. This twist on a classic Chinese dish is loaded full of vegetables with delicious flavours. You will find yourself eating your vegetable serves for the day, with no difficulty at all.
