Spring onions stir-fry
Today a recipe with spring onions, as we promised you in a previous article. A very extroardinary combination of cauliflower and peanuts with grilled chicken. (Serves 4).
Ingredients
- 1
medium cauliflower, about 600g/1 lb 5 oz trimmed weight
- 2
tbsp water
- 3
tbsp chilli oil
- 4
spring onions, trimmed and chopped
- 100g/4
oz natural roasted peanuts in their skins
- Finely
grated zest and juice of 1 lime
- (1
tbsp dark brown sugar) or runny honey
- (Salt),
freshly ground black pepper
Preparation
- Cut
the cauliflower into florets.
- Heat
1 tbsp of the oil in a medium frying pan and gently fry the cauliflower florets
for 5 minutes. To avoid them browning too much, make sure you turn the florets
frequently. Drizzle the cauliflower florets with 2 tbsp water, cover with foil
or a lid, and cook for about 15 minutes until tender.
- Meanwhile,
finely chop the peanuts, either by hand, or, much easier, in a food processor,
using the pulse setting. Tip them into a dry pan and roast them until they
begin to colour. Add the remaining 2 tbsp oil, spring oinion, lime zest and
juice, sugar or honey and seasoning. Heat through gently for 1 minute,
stirring. Place the cooked cauliflower in a warm serving dish, spoon over the
peanut mix and toss to coat well. Serve with grilled and sliced chicken
breast.
