The Boaters Inn has bagged an enviable spot on the stretch of The Thames between Kingston and Teddington Lock.
A simple recipe with complex flavours from the East.
1 tbsp oil
4cm piece of ginger, peeled and finely chopped
2 cloves of garlic, peeled and finely chopped
300g mange tout
2 tbsp Blue Dragon shaoxing wine
2 tsp Blue Dragon light soy sauce
200g cooked prawns, peeled
Heat the oil in a wok until hot. Add the ginger and then the garlic and watch it sizzle. After 10 seconds or so add the mange tout and stir fry for a minute. After this time (or before if the garlic/ginger starts to burn) add the Shaoxing and soy sauce, and the prawns. Stir fry for a further minute to warm through the prawns, and serve with steamed jasmine rice.
Top tip: If using raw prawns, peel and devein them and then cook them first.
Quirky fact: This tastes just as delicious with sliced scallops. Cook them first until caramelised and set aside, then add them in place of the prawns at the end.
