This Prawn stir fry is tasty, healthy and has a delicious sticky sauce that is mild enough for the whole family! This whole cook took under 15 minutes and I used the Prep Set Go vegetables from Countdown, however if you don’t this product on hand, you can simply use 2 cups of vegetables of your choice.
I find stir fry such a breeze to cook because you can use what you have on hand. I often use chicken or beef instead of the prawns and change up the sauces for a different flavour.
One tip for stir fries, is get all your prep ready to go before you start cooking, because you are cooking at a high temperature so you will end up overcooking or burning something if you are still chopping while you are cooking.
I love adding nuts and it is a great way to add some healthy fats to the meal. You can serve this prawn stir fry with rice or noodles.
