FAMILY RECIPE: Potato, Prawn And Vegetable Stir Fry

Lizzy Obaze

This is a meal the whole family will enjoy.

Ingredients: extra virgin olive oil, king prawns, new potatoes, onion, garlic, ginger, red and green peppers, scotch bonnet pepper, carrots, cabbage, peas and sweetcorn.
Seasoning: salt, curry powder, dry thyme and flavour enhancer.

Directions:

* I washed and parboiled the new potatoes with some salt then leave in cold water to cool down. After cooling down I peel the skin of the potatoes and set aside.

* In the hot extra virgin olive oil I fry chopped onion, chopped garlic and scotch bonnet pepper and grated ginger. I then add the prawns.

* After 2 minutes I add the cabbage and carrots as they are the toughest of the veggies. 3minutes later I add the peas, sweetcorn, red and green pepper.

* I then season with curry powder, dry thyme and flavour enhancer.

* I then add the new potatoes so it softens (it was only parboiled) alongside all the veggies. Turn off heat after 3mins and serve.

PS: This meal can be “potato, prawn and vegetable casserole” if finely chopped tin tomatoes is added to a casserole/oven dish with the lid on it with all the above uncooked ingredients and left to slow cook in the oven for about 30-40minutes on medium heat.
