The different cuisines of Asia are as varied and exciting as the vast continent itself. Four hundred recipes from China, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Vietnam, Japan and the Indian subcontinent have been collected together in this magnificent book. Many are familiar dishes that have become favorites in the West -- Peking Duck, Chicken Chow Mein, Sushi, Tempura, and Lamb Tikka. Others, such as Son-in-law Eggs, Sukiyaki Beef, and Gado-gado, may be less wellknown, but offer an irresistible enticement to experiment with new flavors and exotic ingredients.
