Stir fries are quick and healthy, the transformation of raw vegetables into something deeply pleasurable happens in a matter of minutes.
Ingredients
Serves 4
- 2 chicken breasts, cut into thin strips (370g)
- 4 pak choi (450g), washed and cut into quarters lengthwise
- 1 sweet potato (500g), peeled and cut into thin chips
- 1 red onion(60g), peeled, halved and sliced.
- 1 solo garlic (20g), peeled and chopped.
- 1 piece of fresh ginger (30g), peeled and shredded .
- 1 red chilli (16g), deseeded and shredded.
- A handful of cashew nuts (80g)
- 6 tbsps of dark soy sauce
- 2 tbsp sunflower oil
- A little splash of water

Method
- Heat the oil in a wok or large pot and add the chicken and sliced onion.
- Add the sweet potato, quickly followed by the pak choi, chilli, garlic and ginger.
- Add a splash of water before turning all the vegetables around.
- Cover the wok/pot with a lid for 2 minutes over a high heat.
