Time: About 20 minutes to prepare (with at least 60 minutes for the meat to marinate).
Cost: The most expensive thing was the pork at £1.20 for two pork chops, followed by the cashews at £1 for a little bag. Pretty much everything else was in the pantry cupboard. TOTAL COST: Approx £3.
Serves 2
Ingredients *3 tbsp light soy sauce *1 tbsp honey *1 tbsp tamarind paste *Thumb sized piece of ginger, grated *1 stalk lemongrass, outer layer removed and finely chopped *1 red chilli, deseeded *1 clove of garlic, crushed *1 tbsp fish sauce *2 large spring onions *2 pork chops, bone removed *1 head of broccoli *1 cup of rice
Method *Combine the soy sauce, honey, tamarind paste, ginger, lemongrass, garlic, fish sauce and half the chilli in a saucepan. Bring to the boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Allow to cool. *Cut the pork into strips and cover with the sauce. Marinate for at least 60 minutes. *For the rice place 1 cup of rice in a saucepan per two people, covered with double the amount of cold water and a knob of butter. *Bring to the boil, then turn down to a simmer and cover with a lid for 12 minutes. *While that’s cooking heat some vegetable oil in a wok. Take the pork out from the marinade (leaving the rest of the liquid in the bowl) and add it to the pan. Keep it moving with a wooden spoon (so it doesn’t stick and burn) and cook until the pork starts to turn golden brown. *Add the broccoli and the other half of the chilli. Cook for another 5 minutes, then add the reminder of the marinade. *Cook for a further 2 minutes, then add a generous helping of the fresh coriander to finish. *Serve with rice and top with a sprinkling of chopped cashews and more fresh coriander.
