Chef's tip

Serve prawn crackers with a bowl of sweet chilli sauce for dipping (we like Blue Dragon, from major supermarkets). Make this with our quick egg fried rice recipe and our blueberry sponge slice and you've got yourself a supper for four in just 30 minutes.

Wine Recommendation

Choose a ripe, very fruity Australian Riesling – it goes surprisingly well with this stir-fry.

This is very light and tasty. I would add an extra 60/70 calories though as I do not think that is accurate (after putting it through nutracheck!).
