300 g, 2 x 150g breasts, sliced into thin strips

Spring Onions

Thai Fish Sauce

1 tablespoon(s)

Artificial sweetener

Coriander, fresh

2 tablespoon(s), leaves and lime wedges to serve

Instructions

  1. Spray a small frying pan with low fat cooking spray, add the egg, swirl to the edges and let it cook over a medium heat for 1-2 minutes until set. Remove the omelette to a plate and cool before cutting into strips.
  2. Heat a large frying pan or wok, spray with low fat cooking spray and add the duck. Stir-fry for 3 mins until beginning to brown. Add the spring onions, garlic, chilli, beansprouts and mange tout and stir-fry for 2-3 mins.

  4. Divide between 4 warmed plates and garnish with a dusting of paprika, the coriander leaves and lime wedges.

Notes

Fish sauce is also called Nam Pla and is a common addition to many South East Asian dishes. It has an over-strong fish smell but adds great flavour!
