From unusual fruits and vegetables, to interesting sauces and cooking techniques, cooking Chinese cuisine in your home kitchen can be an unfamiliar experience. But once you know more about the delicious, flavourful ingredients often found at a Chinese New Year feast, you’ll be sure to include Chinese food on your menu – no matter the celebration. We took a wander through the supermarket to explore our favourite techniques, tips and tantalising foods: How to cook Chinese food From leafy greens to salty sauces, the Asian vegetable section is full of delicious traditional fresh ingredients to bring your Chinese foods to life. They’re easy to cook – most just require some seasoning and a light stir-fry to impress your guests. And many are just as delicious served raw. With a bit of time on your hands, you can pair them beautifully to make home-cooked meals that would shine on any Chinese New Year menu – from steamed dumplings to noodle dishes and finger foods. Leafy greens Wombok is strange-looking cabbage-like vegetable that gives a delicious textural crunch to any dish. It’s best served raw and sliced (as you would for a coleslaw) but also takes on a rich flavour when lightly fried with ginger, chilli and garlic. Chinese broccoli comes from the same world as your pak choy, bok choy and spinach families – a soft leafy vegetable that just needs a light fry to wilt and leave your guests wanting more. Kohlrabi is a beetroot-looking root with delicious leafy greens growing out of it. With the texture of broccoli and a unique flavour that shines when served raw or steamed, don’t go past this purple or green bulb the next time you see it. Melons Bitter melon tastes, as its name suggests, quite bitter. But with a bit of clever cooking – take the seeds out, cut and salt the flesh to soak up the bitter juice, and stir-fry with chilli and garlic – it’s a delicious, tender treat. Plus, it’s packed with nutrients (from potassium to vitamin C), and believed to help with blood sugar and liver health. The hairy melon is a little more familiar – sort of like an enormous zucchini. Also known as a fuzzy melon or wax gourd, the delicacy is hard to find and best cooked fresh from the market. The seeds can stay in, but the flesh needs to be ‘rubbed’ with a knife to remove the hairy exterior. It’s delicious mixed with a pork stir-fry. Seasoning staples In any pantry, there are some staples that any home chef would keep on hand in order to bring any dish to life. Why not add some Asian flavours to the mix – perfect for whipping up Chinese food that tastes authentic and delicious with minimal effort. Soy sauce, chilli and oyster sauce are firm favourites in any Chinese recipe book. Plus, no Chinese feast would be complete without some fresh ginger and garlic – buy them whole to get the most flavour and nutrients out of them.

The old saying goes, “you only get out of life what you put in,” and the same can be said about kitchens. While that’s definitely true about the delicious food you’re creating, you can’t expect your appliances to stay in top condition if you’re not giving them the love and care they need. From cleaning to maintenance, here’s our top tips to help you care for your NEFF appliances so they stay in that practically brand new condition for years to come. Read your manual  It should go without saying, but you’d be surprised how many people don’t read their instruction manuals beyond the quick start guide. Not sure what types of pans to use with your new induction cooktop? Your manual will give you the answer – as well as helpful instructions so you can test the compatibility of any pot or pan you want to use. Not sure if you’re using the right setting or shelf with your baking? Head to the back of your manual for our handy guides. Don’t panic if you lose your manual – they can all be downloaded from their product page on the NEFF website. Clean your kitchen as you go When it comes to cleaning your appliances, it’s always easier to do it when the spills are fresh. Stay on top of your cleaning with every cook and you’ll find it easier to keep your appliances looking like they just walked out of the showroom. Use the right products It’s important to read your manual to know how to properly clean your NEFF appliances, but you should also ensure you’re using the right products. Different surfaces have different needs and using the wrong cleaner or the wrong method can be detrimental to the health of your appliances. Your manual will tell you the best way to clean each element of your appliance as well as the recommended products to use. Want to ensure you’re using the best cleaning product for your appliance? Our highly recommended cleaning products can be purchased through our after-sales service. Don’t ignore descaling with steam products Descaling is an important part of appliance maintenance when there are water elements involved – such as our steam ovens or coffee machine. The frequency with which your appliance will need to be descaled depends on the hardness of your water, but your appliance should remind you if it needs to be descaled and functionality will be limited until the cycle is complete. Set a reminder for deep cleaning While cleaning your appliances after every use can stop a visible build-up of food from forming and even our Easy Clean and Pyrolytic Self-Cleaning functions can make regularly cleaning your oven a breeze, every kitchen will benefit from a deep clean every now and then. Set yourself some reminders throughout the year to give your whole kitchen a thorough cleaning. From your oven door and your rangehood vents, to all your appliances and racks, pull out the NEFF-approved cleaning products and get into all the nooks and crannies until your kitchen is sparkling. Ask NEFF if you’re unsure about how to care for your kitchen Whether something has gone wrong and you need your appliance repaired or a part replaced, get in touch with our friendly customer service team to get it sorted as soon as possible. They can also help with minor questions to help you get the most out of your appliances.

Place the eggplant pieces in a sieve and sprinkle the salt and turmeric on top and rub it well on the eggplant. Leave it aside for an hour to help get the excess moisture out. Place them on paper towel and rub off all the excess moisture. Fill a pan 1/3rd with oil and once it reaches 190°C gently fry the eggplant pieces in it until golden on medium to high heat. This might take 4-5 minutes and will have to be done in batches. Now in the same oil fry the potatoes as well, until golden. To make the curry heat the oil in a pan and add the cumin, mustard and fennel seeds. Let them sizzle for a few seconds and add the onions. Once they start to turn golden add the ginger, chilli and cook for minute before adding the spices, mustard and coconut milk. Bring it to a boil. Now add the fried eggplant and potatoes to it and cook for 2 minutes. Serve it hot with some coconut rice. View our rice recipe here.

Sure to impress any guest, and easy to whip up in a NEFF CircoTherm® oven!

The glaze is an easy (but rather sophisticated) mix of lime marmalade, lime juice, sugar, soy, garlic, ginger, chilli and lemongrass – perfect for a summer bite packed with light, sticky heat. Salmon with capsicum, chorizo and mango Our signature snapper recipe works perfectly with fresh salmon too, and could not be more ideal for a summer lunch in the Australian sun with your family. The chorizo-mango salsa is a firm favourite of ours – spicy, sweet and just bold enough to balance out the flavours of the salmon. Serve with a side of fragrant coconut rice.

Many people think that you only need a rangehood for your cooktop in the event that something gets burnt. However, rangehoods are essential for keeping the air you breathe clean while you’re in the kitchen, and preventing a build-up of steam and grease on your kitchen cupboards. When you’re planning a new kitchen, the type of rangehood you get can depend on a number of different factors, but we can help you to decide which would work best for you. Wall-mounted rangehoods These are one of the most common types of rangehoods. Wall-mounted above your cooktop, they act as a canopy above you as you cook. With NEFF’s efficient SilentDrive, our wall-mounted rangehoods not only save up to 80% energy but are whisper quiet when the fan is in use. With the addition of LED illumination, you’ll always be able to see what you’re cooking. These types of rangehoods are recommended for more traditional bench-set cooktops, and can be installed to operate in Exhaust Air Mode (where the air is cleaned by grease filters and sent outside through a series of pipes) or in Circulating Air Mode (where the air is drawn in, cleaned by grease filters and an activated carbon filter before being recirculated back into the kitchen). Click here to see our Wall-mounted rangehood models. Integrated and Slideout Rangehoods Your rangehood is one of the most functional appliances in your kitchen, but that doesn’t mean it has to work against the aesthetic appeal and clean lines you worked so hard to build. Our Slideout rangehoods are designed to slide out when you need them and can be pushed back to sit flush with your cupboards when not in use. Integrated rangehoods are designed to be fitted within your overhead canopy kitchen unit. Their discreet design helps to save space and preserve the look of your kitchen. They’re perfect for kitchens where space is at a premium, and with quiet exhaust fans and LED lighting you can stay focussed on what you’re cooking. Click here to see our Integrated and Slideout rangehood models. Worktop rangehoods Not all rangehoods need to sit overhead. In fact, our worktop rangehoods can be a great all-in-one solution. This two-in-one appliance fits the rangehood into the centre of your cooktop, making it the perfect appliance for open plan kitchens with an island. Without an overhead rangehood, you can have unobstructed views of your living space as you cook. With double flex induction cooktops, you have plenty of room for all your cooking, with the size and shape of your pots automatically detected and the heat adjusted for their exact location. The removable magnetic TwistPadFire® dial can also let you control both the induction cooktop and the ventilation settings from one central control zone.
