Method

  1. Cut the pak choi stalks from the leaves and halve the stalks lengthways. Have everything cut and next to the hob, because the cooking takes five minutes.

  2. Heat the rapeseed oil in a wok until it just smokes. Add the ginger, garlic, chilli and the white part of the spring onion and stir for thirty seconds.

  3. Add the prawns and cook for a minute a side, then the mushrooms and pak choi stalks for two minutes. Add the leaves and the tamari and toss for a minute until the leaves collapse.

  4. Off the heat, add the sesame oil and the green part of the spring onion. Serve over the rice.

Worth knowing

  • Tamari instead of soy sauce keeps wheat out of the dish, and it tastes a little rounder. Ordinary soy works the same way if gluten is not a concern.
  • Sesame oil goes in at the end, off the heat. Fried, it turns bitter and you lose the reason for buying it.
