Method
2. To begin making the stir fry, heat a tbsp of oil in a wok on a high heat, then add the ginger and spring onions, frying them for about 1 minute. Next, add the chopped pepper and fry for another minute until they soften.
3. Add the water chestnuts, pak choi, beansprouts, cashews and garlic. Toss in the wok until the beansprouts and pak choi soften and wilt. Then, add the soy sauce and a dash more pepper for an extra kick.
4. Tip the wok contents into a dish and put any remaining oil back on the heat, topping up with the other tablespoon of oil if necessary. Add the prawns/shrimp to the wok, without the marinade, and toss for 2 minutes until pink. Pour the marinade on top of the prawns/shrimp and continue to toss briefly.
5. Tip the cooked, marinated prawns onto the stir-fried vegetables and, if you'd like, serve up with noodles. Delicious!
