Extremely easy stir-fry(serves 2)With so many pre-prepared stir-fries there's absolutely no point in slicing up vegetables yourself. It isn't any cheaper (than the basic mixes anyway) and it's a lot more hassle. The only downside is that you have to eat them within 24 hours which requires a degree of forward planning that doesn't fit easily into the student lifestyle. By the way, don't feel you have to buy a ready-made sauce to go with it - soy sauce will do fine. Ingredients: - 2 tbsp oil - 300g bag of stir-fry vegetables - 1 cooked chicken breast, skin removed and cut into thin strips (optional) - 2 tbsp light soy sauce Method: - Heat a wok or large frying pan until it begins to smoke. - Pour in the oil and immediately tip in the vegetables and the chicken. Cook for a couple of minutes, stirring them so they don't burn. - Add about half a small glass (50 ml) of water and cook until evaporated. - Add the soy sauce and cook for a few seconds more. - Taste, adding more soy if you think it needs it. Serve up. You could substitute 75g of cashew nuts for the chicken Recipe by Fiona Beckett Back to the recipe page | |
