Stir-fries featuring cashews are a favourite across Asia and this Thai version is one of the best! Unlike Chinese Cashew Chicken, which is generous with sauce, the Thai version is a drier style stir-fry and the sauce flavour is more intense. Enjoy with crunchy veg and delicious jasmine rice.

Step-by-step instructions

First Things First

Our vegetables and fruit come as fresh as can be, so please give them a quick wash before you get started.

As well as your basic cooking tools, you will need...

Pot
Frying Pan or Wok

Step 1

1 Cook Rice

Boil a kettle. In a pot, combine the rice, a pinch of salt and 1.5 cups boiling water. Bring to a boil, cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer 15 minutes. Keep covered and let the rice absorb any remaining water off the heat. Fluff the finished rice with a fork.

Step 2

2 Prepare Ingredients

Peel and cut onion into large chunks. Cut carrot into half moons. Remove the root from the spring onion and cut into 5cm long lengths (white and green parts). Deseed capsicum and cut into chunks. Pick coriander leaves and chop. Slice chilli. Dice the chicken and toss in cornflour. Mix together oyster/sweet soy, chilli jam (to taste) and 13 cup water.

Step 3

3 Cook Cashews and Chicken

Heat a large frying pan or wok over a high heat. Add 3Tbsp of oil to the pan and when hot add the cashews. Toss for 30 seconds - 1 minute until golden brown. Remove from the pan and set aside. To the same pan add the chicken pieces and stir-fry for 3 minutes or until golden and cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside with the cashews.

Step 4

4 Cook Veg

To the same frying pan, add more oil if required. Add in onions, carrots and capsicum, cook for 2 minutes. Add in the spring onions and cook for a further 1-2 minutes. The veg should not be cooked fully, it should still have some bite at this point.

Step 5

5 Finish Stir-Fry

Add the chicken and cashews back to the pan along with chilli (to taste) and half the coriander. Toss with the veg for 30 seconds to warm through. Add sauce to the pan and toss to coat all the ingredients. Cook for a further 1 minute to reduce the liquid to a sticky consistency.

Step 6

6 You Plate It!

Divide the rice and Thai cashew stir-fry between serving dishes. Garnish with any remaining coriander and chilli. Enjoy!
