How to Make Your Own Chinese Takeaway

Chinese Takeaway Recipes

Chinese takeaways are hugely popular in the UK, arguably the Nation's favourite! So, how do you fancy making your own from home?

Here we have two delicious recipes featuring classic dishes from your favourite Chinese Takeaways, including Egg Fried Rice and Chinese Curry Noodles using our sugar free Chinese Fakeaway Sauce!

Like all of our sauces, our Chinese Sauce is gluten free, dairy free, diabetic friendly and suitable for vegans! Adding this sauce to a dish full of tasty vegetables is the best way to enjoy Chinese-style dishes without the worry of excessive sugar consumption or calorie intake.

1. Egg Fried Rice

A staple for most Chinese takeaway meals, egg-fried rice is actually one of the easiest dishes to make at home as part of your Chinese Fakeaway evening! All you need is your chosen vegetables, cooked rice and a dollop of our delicious Sugar Free Chinese Fakeaway Sauce.

With our sauce added to this dish, there is as little as 157 calories per serving, where as an egg-fried rice from the takeaway could set you back over 400 calories.

 Serves 4 as a side dish, Serves 2 as part of a main meal
