Instructions

1
Mix the sauce ingredients together in a bowl, taste it to check if you like the balance of flavour and adjust if you wish. Set this aside.
2
Heat the oil on a very high heat in a wok. Get the oil as hot as you can, just below smoking point. Check the heat by dropping a piece of spring onion (scallion) and if it sizzles immediately, the oil is hot enough.
3
Add the chili, garlic and ginger, stir and cook for about 30 seconds.
4
Add the spring onions (scallions) and cook for a further minute.
5
Add the shrimp (prawns) cook for about 2 minutes or until they turn pink.
6
Add the sauce, keeping the heat high so that as soon as it hits your pan or wok, it sizzles and reduces.When the sauce has thickened a little, add the pak choi, mix through and cover it, cooking only for a minute.
7
Serve with simply boiled white rice and sprinkle with some fresh coriander (cilantro).
