Chinese takeaways have a bad reputation for being high in calories. But it’s really just the sauces that cause the problem. Stir-frying is actually one of the healthiest ways to cook.
This lovely homemade Chinese-style meal serves 4, so warm up some plates, tuck in and enjoy.
Make sure to add the chopped nuts and slash of lime juice to the dish for the benefit of fibre, protein and antioxidants, which can aid weight loss.
