Stir Fry

A prawn stir fry with mushrooms and vegetables.  Can be served with or without noodles.  Not quite 'authentic' stir fry, but very tasty!

Serves 1 | 3 ProPoints/180 Calories per portion (approx)

Served with noodles, 5 ProPoints/250 Calories per portion (approx)

Ingredients

Garlic (fresh, 2 cloves)
Ginger (fresh, small piece)
Chilli (fresh, 1 medium size)
Chinese 5 Spice Powder (pinch)
150g prawns (cooked large, frozen but defrosted)
Fish sauce (splash)(optional)
Mushrooms (sliced) (optional)
Soy sauce (light, 1tbsp)
Bean sprouts (good handful!)
60g Udon Noodles (simmered for 4-5 mins)(optional)
Oyster Sauce (1 tbsp)(optional, add 1 ProPoint if used)
Green leaves (fresh pak choi or spinach, etc)
Spring onions (1 finely sliced) (optional)

Method

1) Finely chop the garlic, ginger and chilli and gently fry in a wok or large frying pan with a couple of squirts of 1Cal spray oil.  Add a splash of water to stop any burn.

2) Add the defrosted prawns and a pinch of Chinese 5 spice powder.  Cook only until the prawns are warmed through.  Add a splash of fish sauce, if desired.

2) Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for a minute until soft.  Add a tablespoon of light soy sauce.

3) Add a nice big handful of bean sprouts and stir through for a minute.  If desired, add previously cooked Udon Noodles.  Add a tbsp of Oyster Sauce (optional, but adds some nice flavour and saltiness - don't forget to calculate any extra calories/ProPoints).

4) Stir through the green leaves and cook only until wilted slightly.

5) Serve the stir fry and top with finely sliced spring onions.

Notes/Ideas

The extra 'liquid' in the photo is because we added a dash of water to make it slightly 'runnier'.

Substitute the prawns with chicken.  A medium breast will increase the calorie count and ProPoints accordingly; generally, we cook the breast whole in the oven, wrapped in foil and dice into cubes, adding at the same stage as the prawns above.
