The Chinese Takeaway Secret: How to Cook Your Favourite Fakeaway Dishes at Home by Kenny McGovern

According to Statista, as a nation we spend 10 billion each year on takeaways, and in a 2019 poll, Chinese food was voted Britain's favourite takeaway.

The Chinese Takeaway Secret offers a wide selection of popular recipes that will ensure the reader's home-made dishes look and taste exactly like those offered by their favourite restaurants. Make starters and sides from Spring Rolls and Spare Ribs to Satay Skewers and Crispy Won Ton, and with mains for every palette including Chow Mein, Shredded Aromatic Pork Pancakes, Sweet and Sour Chicken, and Foo Yung.

There are delicious sides and traditional street food dishes too - including Dan Dan Noodles, Prawn Crackers and Wok Fried Beansprouts.

With this definitive collection of almost 100 takeaway recipes, you'll be able to sample incredible Chinese cuisine from the comfort of your own home - and at half the price!

About Kenny McGovern

At the age of nineteen, KENNY McGOVERN was diagnosed with what is known as 'social anxiety disorder' and eventually became too ill to carry on working. As the years passed, he became almost housebound as a result of his illness and as such lost touch with many parts of life which although enjoyable are often taken for granted. Simple pleasures such as buying a nice sandwich from a local cafe or going out for a meal became impossible for him to do.

As a result of this, and because of his love of food and cooking, he eventually took to trying to recreate many of his favourite shop-bought foods at home. 'If I can't go to McDonalds, I'll make my own,' was his philosophy. Over a period of five years or more, he tested and tweaked many, many recipes, his new hobby quickly building into an obsession.

In 2010, Kenny decided to publish some selected recipes in his first book The Takeaway Secret - it became an instant bestseller, following word-of-mouth recommendations on the internet.

With huge support and encouragement from readers, his confidence has grown, along with his food obsession. As a result, Kenny once more ventured out into the world. He has since published five more books.
