Siomai is one of those Chinese dishes that’s made its way to the heart of a lot of Filipinos and has been deeply ingrained in Filipino cuisine. You’ll find it often served in local food stalls and kiosks as a side, snack, or even main (siomai with rice!). When I was still in school. kiosks often served siomai and you can scoop up all the sauce you’d like, which was usually a mix of soy sauce, chili garlic sauce, calamansi (Philippine lime) juice, and fried garlic. Though siomai is usually filled with ground pork, I filled these vegan ones with a mix of tofu and mushrooms, and cooked them 2 ways: fried and steamed! I personally prefer the deep fried ones since I love the crispy exterior but also really enjoyed the steamed ones.
This delicious Chinese lemon chicken is super crispy, with a tangy, tart and sweet lemon sauce. A quick and easy recipe that's perfect for any day! Serve it on it's own, or pair with some rice.
Lo mein should not be a lengthy process (if Chinese Restaurants can have it ready in a fastly manner then the process should be fairly quick.) This Lo mein recipe doesn't require a dozen of different condiments and the process from start to finish is probably less than 20 minutes! Make it Chicken Lo mein but vegetables that you may already have on hand can be all that you really need.
