Hainanese Chicken Rice:


It's a Singaporean dish, despite its name. It's poached chicken and rice. But this rice is no ordinary rice. It's often cooked in chicken stock and it tastes amazing! The chicken too is really good - once you poach the chicken you cool it down immediately so that the fat forms under the skin. If you ever have the chance to try it, do so.

Also, Xiao Long Bao (pronounced see-ow loong bow, the see-ow pronounced as one syllable):


They're little steamed dumplings filled with pork and soup. It takes ages to make, but it's awesome! Din Tai Fung, a Taiwanese restaurant chain, sells great dumplings like this.
What tastes really good is when you dip them in vinegar and add ginger.

The nice thing about dumplings is you can put just about anything in them. You can have them be snacks, dessert, or a main course.

Indian food! I guess its big in the UK but not here. I go to the local restaurant as often as often as I can and cook it occasionally.
