This version of cashew chicken has just the right combination of flavour and freshness. It’s salty and spicy without being overpowering. Need more spice? Add a little more fiery sambal oelek. The crisp greens add a fresh balance.

Pot

Rice Cooker (optional)
In a pot, bring 1 1⁄2 cup water and rice to a boil, cover and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 15 minutes until all of the water is absorbed. Keep pot covered and let the rice absorb the water off the heat. Fluff the finished rice with a fork.
Peel and thinly slice the garlic. Trim spring onion ends and cut the white part into 3 cm pieces. Thinly slice green ends, keeping the white and green parts separate. Trim the ends off the broccolini, then cut into bite size pieces. Cut pak choy into quarters lengthways. Pat chicken dry with paper towel, then dice into 11⁄2-2 cm pieces.
Heat oil in a large high-sided pan (or pot) over medium heat. When oil is shimmering, add garlic and cook for 2 minutes until fragrant. Add the chicken and the sambal oelek (to taste), then cook for 4 minutes.
Add the broccolini, pak choy, oyster/soy sauce and white spring onion ends to the same pan. Cook for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Sprinkle in cashews and cook for a further minute. Divide rice and cashew stir-fry between plates and garnish with green spring onion ends. Enjoy!
