Chinese Fake Away with Hazel Nuts as “Water Chestnuts”

Chinese Fake Away with Hazel Nuts as “Water Chestnuts”

There was a “Stir-Fry” pack in the Yellow Sticker fridge at the local Supermarket. As we’d frozen it we binned the vegetables and just used the Chicken. But at 92p who’s complaining? (Not us!)

Ingredients:-

250g of Sliced Chicken mini fillets
1 Onion, finely sliced
2 Cloves of Garlic, minced
½ a Red Pepper, finely sliced
2 Spring Onions, chopped
4 Mushrooms, sliced
A handful of Bean Sprouts
Chopped Kale
Toasted Hazel Nuts ( Recipe Here )
Soy Sauce (Gluten free in out case)
Ginger powder
Cornflour
Salt & Pepper
Oil to fry

Method:-

(1) Marinade the Chicken in Soy Sauce, Cornflour, Salt & Pepper for 20 minutes.
(2) Fry the Chicken in a little Oil until tender bit not pink.
(3) Remove from the Wok or pan and set aside.
(4) Add the Onion, Garlic and Red Pepper with a splash of Soy Sauce & Ginger powder.
(5)  Fry on a high heat stirring as you go.
(6) Add the remaining ingredients – stir and fry until steaming hot but not wilted.

Serve over boiled Rice with Fries and Prawn Crackers for the most unconventional but typically English Chinese Fake-Away!

Home Grown Tomatoes

We live in a flat with no outdoor space so growing things is generally a window sill gig. But that’s cool, we like to experiment. In the spring we had a shop bought Tomato which had found a hiding place at the back of the salad draw in the fridge where it was quietly returning to a composted state! So I cut in half and popped half in some compost in a big pot in the Bedroom / Dinning Room. I’ve no idea what variety they were other then “Salad Tomatoes” but it grew a vast amount of greenery and a few Tomatoes.....

First eaten return on our investment!
