The Lunar New Year will be celebrated this coming Sunday, 22 January. Whether your family celebrates this event or not, it’s nevertheless a fun time to gather with friends over a Chinese feast.

My menu always includes either Vietnamese Spring Rolls or Potstickers with my Homemade Chilli Oil.

Whilst mooncakes are traditionally eaten around the Mid-Autumn Festival, you’ll find many Asian grocers stocking them at this time of the year too. If you have some time up your sleeves, Homemade Mooncakes make for a delicious dessert, especially my Chocolate Fudge Mooncakes!

I’ve included some other recipe ideas below as well, including my popular recipe for Steamed Bao Buns - so many options for fillings 😊

Happy Lunar New Year!
