The Chinese diet is
traditionally low in fat and Chinese fare can be
readily adapted for low cholesterol cooking. In part
this is because meals are based on rice with
delicious sauces made from vegetables, fruits and
spices and a garnish of animal protein in the form
of meat, fish or chicken.
By making your own sauces at home using fresh,
natural ingredients, removing all visible fat from
meat, chicken or duck and by quickly stir-frying in
a non-stick pan or wok using a little stock or
water, you can continue to enjoy many of your
favorite recipes - including spring rolls. Usually
deep-fried, spring rolls can be baked in the oven to
produce a tasty appetizer for a low cholesterol
meal.
