Madame Wong's LongLife Chinese Cookbook
Author: S. T. Ting Wong
The author was a delightful old Szechuan lady who taught Chinese cooking in Shanghai, Hong Kong, New York, and California, heading the department at UCLA at the time this book came out. A sprightly 71 at the time, she attributed her good health and long life to following Chinese cooking principles.

I got this book as a freebie with my electric wok, and everything I've made from it has turned out really well. Special favorites include "Deep Fried Walnut Chicken" and "Bean Curd Szechuan Style"
