Hi, my name is Kwoklyn and I'm a third-generation restaurateur, media chef and the author of the best selling Chinese Takeaway Cookbook.
I literally grew up in the belly of the Chinese catering industry, spending my childhood in the playgrounds of my parent's Chinese restaurants and takeaways. Unbeknown to me every day was a school day and I learnt my trade living life as a BBC (British born Chinese) in the food industry.
This course includes over 30 lessons to teach you the Chinese takeaway trade secrets that you can master in your own kitchen. You'll learn how to cook an entire Chinese takeaway meal and key kitchen skills in using Chinese cooking utensils and ingredients.
A wise Chinese man once said, “the Chinese will conquer the world with their food”, and how right he was. Chinese cuisine has been ranked on many occasions as the number 1 go-to cuisine when eating out or buying a takeaway.
