Overview:
This three-book hardcover collection brings together Kwoklyn Wan’s expertise in recreating authentic Chinese takeaway flavours at home. The set includes Chinese Takeaway in 5, Chinese Takeaway Cookbook, and Veggie Chinese Takeaway Cookbook, giving readers a complete range of recipes from quick five-ingredient meals to classic restaurant-style dishes and fully vegetarian options. Each book focuses on straightforward techniques and familiar ingredients that deliver the comforting tastes people seek from their favourite Chinese takeaway. Buying the set provides immediate access to hundreds of tested recipes across different dietary preferences without needing multiple separate purchases.
What Makes This Collection Special:
Together these books create a practical progression for home cooks who want consistent takeaway-quality results. The five-ingredient approach in the first book removes common barriers of long ingredient lists, while the main cookbook expands into full restaurant classics and the veggie volume adapts the same flavours for plant-based eating. Readers gain a unified system for weeknight dinners, weekend feasts, and meat-free meals that all share the same reliable flavour profile. The collection suits busy households looking for speed without sacrificing taste and offers strong value when purchased together rather than individually.
Books Included in This Collection:
Chinese Takeaway in 5
Kwoklyn Wan presents 80 classic Chinese dishes that each require just five ingredients. With a basic store cupboard of salt, pepper, soy sauce, sugar and oil already in place, cooks can prepare a wide variety of meals using minimal additional shopping. The book focuses on speed and simplicity while still delivering the rich flavours expected from Chinese takeaway favourites.
Chinese Takeaway Cookbook
This volume teaches readers how to recreate the UK’s most loved Chinese restaurant dishes in their own kitchens. It concentrates on the nostalgic, comforting versions that appeal to Western palates and provides clear methods for achieving those familiar tastes without needing a professional setup or obscure ingredients.
Veggie Chinese Takeaway Cookbook
Kwoklyn Wan adapts his restaurant techniques for vegetarian and vegan cooks, showcasing how fresh vegetables, tofu and meat substitutes can produce the same bold takeaway flavours. Recipes range from tom yum soup and spring rolls to fried tofu with chilli and black beans, aubergine with sesame seeds, Hong Kong crispy noodles and sticky rice parcels, all while keeping dairy minimal.
Who This Set Is Perfect For:
The collection suits home cooks who regularly order Chinese takeaway and want reliable ways to make similar dishes themselves. It works well for busy families needing quick weeknight options, vegetarians seeking flavour-packed meat-free meals, and anyone building a practical Chinese cookbook library.
