HAYSTACKS (OR CHINESE SUNDAES)
This is a fun meal, just add rolls or bread and a green salad if desired. My kids love this! This recipe adjusts easily for large or small groups, just cook enough rice for about 1 cup cook rice per person. Yes, this can be considered "retro". I didn't post this as an "asian" or "chinese" dish. It definitely is not for sophisticated palates! It just is a fun way to get my kids to eat some veggies, and it is easy!

Steps:
- In saucepan, cover chicken with water and boil until done.
- Remove chicken, cool and shred, reserve cooking liquid.
- Put soup in saucepan, stir and add enough cooking liquid to make thick gravy (do not add too much, it will thin as it heats). Add chicken and heat.
- Set out chopped ingredients in small bowls.
- Serve buffet style, first 1 cup rice, then add whatever chopped ingredients you desire. Top with chicken gravy mixture and noodles.
SPICY GINGER SUNDAES WITH FIVE-SPICE CRISPS
Instead of mixing cinnamon with sugar, Ree rings the changes by creating a Chinese five-spice sugar to flavor the crisps to garnish her sundaes. The use of sambal adds a little heat and extra piquancy to the caramel.

Steps:
- Divide the ice cream between two bowls or sundae glasses. Top with the ginger caramel and coconut chips. Add the crisps to the edge of each bowl or glass and finish each with a dollop of whipped cream. Dive in.
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the ginger and sambal and cook for a minute to release the flavor. Add the coconut sugar, cream and salt. Cook while whisking gently until thick and smooth, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat. Use warm or cool and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Mix the sugar and five-spice powder together in a small bowl.
- Add the tortillas to a sheet pan and brush the tops with half of the melted butter. Sprinkle the tortillas with half of the sugar mixture. Flip and repeat with the remaining butter and sugar mixture.
- Bake until very crisp and golden, 15 to 17 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely. Break apart and eat as a snack or with your favorite ice cream.
CHINESE SUNDAE
Fun and different! The hostess will start the meal by her example. She will "build" the foundation of the sundae by placing a layer of cooked rice in the middle of her plate. Subsequent items are successively layered on the foundation. Each guest will choose the items they want- Hilarity usually ensues!

Steps:
- Cook rice. I use one cup of cooked rice for each guest. Place chinese noodles on baking sheet and warm. Prepare "gravy" by mixing together soups and chicken broth. This can be adjusted for larger crowds.
- Prepare other ingredients and place each in a decorative bowl. ** I usually set the table ahead of time** This fits beautifully with all kinds of parties. I serve this to my book club and it is always a hit!!
- You can change the order of ingredients to suit yourself, this is just the order that I serve them in.

Steps:
- Make the brittle: oil a baking sheet and set aside. Gently heat the caster sugar in a small, non-stick frying pan, stirring until dissolved. Add the nuts. When the sugar becomes a deep caramel, pour onto the baking sheet and leave until completely cold. Snap the brittle into pieces, then pulse in a food processor to coarse crumbs. Can be made up to a week ahead. Store in an airtight container.
- For the sauce, whizz the strawberries in a food processor until smooth. Sieve into a bowl, then stir in the icing sugar. Set aside.
- To assemble the sundaes, whip the cream with the icing sugar until it just holds its shape. In a tall glass, layer up the chopped fruit, brittle, ice cream, sorbet and sauce, finishing with swirls of cream, more brittle and the whole strawberries.
