Notes

  • Feel free to use any veg you have that needs using. Chunky vegetables like courgette and aubergine would work well, although not very traditional.
  • Make sure you don't overcook the prawns, otherwise they will become chewy.
  • If you don't like prawns, you could make this with just extra vegetables, chicken or even tofu.
  • We wouldn't recommend reheating this dish.
  • Finish the dish off with some thinly sliced spring onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds before serving.
