Instructions

1
  • Halve the red pepper, discard the core and seeds, slice thinly.
  • Drain the pineapple, reserving the juice.
  • Chop the pineapple into small chunks.
2
  • Heat a splash of oil in a large frying pan or wok over medium-high heat.
  • Add the red pepper and stir-fry until softened, 2-3 mins.
  • Sprinkle over the cornflour and cook, stirring for 1 minute.
3
  • Add the prawns, mange-tout and pineapple chunks, stir to combine.
  • Stir in the sweet and sour paste, sweet and sour garnish, rice vinegar, 2 tbsp pineapple juice per person and the water (amount specified in the ingredient list).
  • Simmer until thickened and glossy and the prawns are cooked through, 3-4 mins. Tip: The prawns are cooked when pink on the outside and opaque all the way through.
4
  • A few minutes before you are ready to serve, squeeze the rice pouch, tear off the strip and microwave at 800W for 2 mins (or stir-fry the rice for 3 mins in a dry frying pan over a medium-high heat).
5
  • Taste the prawns for seasoning and add more salt and pepper if necessary.
6
  • Share the rice between your bowls topped with the sweet and sour prawns. Enjoy!
