Stir-fry prawns with peppers & spinach

This is a brilliant speedy supper for two. Pick up the ingredients on your way home






Ingredients

Serves 2
  • 3 tbsp groundnut or sunflower oil
  • 2 fat garlic cloves , sliced thinly
  • 1 small red pepper , cored, deseeded and thinly sliced
  • 8 oz pack raw peeled tiger prawns , defrosted and patted dry
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce or Thai fish sauce
  • 4 oz bag baby spinach leaves

Method

  1. Heat a wok until you can feel a good heat rising. Add 2 tbsp oil and, a few secs later, the garlic slices. Stir-fry until they start to turn golden, then using a slotted spoon, spoon onto kitchen paper to drain.
  2. Toss in the pepper and stir-fry for 1 min or so until softened, then scoop out and set aside. Add the remaining tbsp oil. Heat, then toss in the prawns and stir-fry for another 2-3 mins until cooked and beginning to brown. Add the soy or fish sauce.
  3. Throw in the spinach and stir-fry until it begins to wilt. Return the peppers and crisp garlic to the wok, then serve immediately.
