Method

  1. Heat a large frying pan or wok over a high heat and fry the sausagemeat, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until golden. Reduce the heat slightly, then add the chopped garlic, ginger, lemongrass, coriander stems, most of the chopped spring onions and most of the chopped red chilli. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until everything is smelling fragrant.
  2. Add the brown sugar, fish sauce and soy sauce, then stir to combine. Taste and add a little extra soy sauce, if needed.
  3. Serve spooned over cooked rice, sprinkled with a few more coriander leaves and the rest of the spring onion and chilli, with lime wedges for squeezing.

  1. Wow loved the zing of flavours with this recipe, I used reduced fat sausages with the skins removed as an alternative and it worked perfectly. Will definitely make again
