Instructions

Prep Time
1

a) Halve the pak chois lengthways.

b) Thinly slice the chilli. TIP: Prepare less if you prefer things milder.

c) Crush the peanuts in the unopened sachet using a rolling pin.

d) Combine in a small bowl the soy sauce, ginger, garlic & lemongrass puree, half the chilli and half the peanuts with the honey and water (see pantry for both amounts).

Fry the Pak Choi
2

a) Heat the sesame oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.

b) Once hot, lay in the pak choi halves, cut-side down. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 2-3 mins, then turn over and cook for another 2-3 mins on the other side. The pak choi should be slightly browned and charred.

c) Reduce the heat to medium, add the soy and ginger mixture, then pop a lid (or some foil) onto the pan and leave to steam for another 3 mins.

d) Remove the lid from the pan and fry to thicken the sauce, 1 min.
