Asian Recipe : Broccoli in Coconut Sauce

Separate the green stalks from the flowerets of the broccoli. Peel the stalks using a vegetable peeler and slice obliquely. Break the flowerets into smaller clusters. Wash and drain.

Heat wok, add one tablespoon oil and fry the crushed garlic and sliced onion until transparent. Remove to platter.

Add the balance of vegetable oil and fry prawns until they have turned pink. Remove to platter.

Using the same wok, put in the stalks and flowerets of broccoli and stir-fry for 2 minutes, then add bay leaf, laos, salt and pepper, sugar and coconut milk. Allow to cook until stalks are tender, turning frequently.

Add sliced capsicum, return onions and prawns to cook until heated and well mixed.

Remove bay leaf, laos and garlic before serving.
