Stir Fried Chilli Prawns

Quick and easy colourful healthy dinner

Ingredients – Serves 2

For the marinade

• 2 tsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp mirin
• 1 tbsp hoisin sauce
• 1 tbsp sesame oil (or substitute with rapeseed oil)
• 180g pack of raw prawns

For the stir fry

• 1 tbsp rapeseed oil
• 2 cloves garlic crushed
• 2 large red chillies sliced length ways, seeds removed
• 1 bell pepper (any colour) sliced
• 4 spring onions washed, chopped in half and then sliced length ways
• 2-3 broccoli florets roughly sliced
• basmati rice and a handful of coriander to serve

Method

1. For the marinade, combine the ingredients in a small bowl and add the prawns and set to one side, then cook the rice and keep warm before starting the stir fry.
2. Heat a wok over a high heat and add a splash of the oil.  Once smoking add the prawns (reserving the marinade for later) and stir fry for 1-2 minutes.
3. Remove the prawns from the wok and set to one side.
4. Heat another splash of oil in the wok and add the garlic, chillies and peppers with one tablespoon of water.  Stir fry for 1-2 minutes then add the spring onion and broccoli and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
5. Add 2 tablespoons of the leftover marinade and return the prawns to the wok and cook for a final 1-2 minutes.
6. Serve with basmati rice and garnish with roughly chopped coriander.
