I love Chinese food, so coming up with my own versions of some of my favourite choices helps me to stay on plan, as whenever the craving sets in for Chinese food, I have various options to recreate in my own home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Being able to create your favourite foods in your own home, is important for remaining successful on your weight loss journey. If you feel deprived or that certain foods are off limits, the chances are you won't be able to stick to it long term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Search for ways you can create the foods you love in a Slimming friendly way, you might not be able to create an exact version, but with switching out some not so great ingredients for healthier choices, most meals can be adapted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chinese Food is a weakness for me, I was introduced to it young because of my father's trade designing wok cookers for Chinese restaurants or takeaways, it meant we frequently ate Chinese food, either at a local restaurant or from takeaways brought home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beef with Mushrooms in Oyster Sauce is a dish we would frequently order from the local Chinese along with with the usual egg fried rice and is a firm favourite, so this was a definite one for making Slimming friendly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I cook this dish in my non-stick wok as you can cook this perfectly without the need for lots of oil, but a non-stick frying pan will work perfectly too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the sauce I use just water with the other ingredients, instead of stock, otherwise, it can become too salty. There is plenty of flavour from the other ingredients in the sauce and the last thing you want is not to be able to taste those flavours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HOW CAN I ADD A \u2153 VEGETABLES TO THE BEEF AND MUSHROOMS IN OYSTER SAUCE?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Mushrooms are a speed food, and there are plenty of those in this dish that will count towards your \u2153 vegetables. But some additional stir fried veg of choice (I love bean sprouts) would be a great addition. You could also replace the rice with some Cauliflower Rice<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
