One wok, 30 minutes, and something that tastes like your favourite takeaway order, made in your own kitchen.

It is the kind of dish that fills a kitchen with extraordinary smells and empties a table in twenty minutes. I made Macarona Forn for the first time after spending time in Malta and developing a serious …
