Dinner Tuesday 19 December - Chinese Style Stir Steamed Vegetables & Prawns


Ah, this old chestnut. Yes, for the umpteenth time, the stir steam appears! Full details can be found here

Stir Steamed Vegetables & Prawns Recipe

Today's selection was

  • 1 carrot
  • 60g baby corn
  • 50g mange tout
  • 125g broccoli
  • 110g prawns
  • 4 spring onions
  • 60g shiitake mushrooms

I now buy mu shiitake from Waitrose, because they are grown in either the UK by the Livesey Brothers or in the Netherlands. Fewer food miles and not from China. I do not understand why Sainsbury's have now started buying their shiitake from China - they used to be from the UK. Price, I presume.

Here is the Livesey Bros website
