Step 1

Boil a full kettle

Step 2

Bash the lemongrass with a rolling pin

Step 3

Remove the tough outer layer[s] of the lemongrass and set aside, then chop the softer inner core roughly

Step 4

Peel and roughly chop (or grate) the garlic and ginger

Step 5

Slice half of the red chilli into rounds and roughly chop the remaining chilli

Step 6

Remove 2 outer leaves from the spring greens and add them to a large dish with the lemongrass outer layers

Step 7

Add the rice noodles and cover with boiled water

Step 8

Set aside for 12-15 min or until softened

Step 9

Once softened, drain and set aside

Step 10

Meanwhile, add the chopped ginger, garlic, lemongrass and chopped red chilli (save the rounds for garnish!) to a food processor with the ground turmeric, soy sauce, half the peanuts and 1 tbsp vegetable oil

Step 11

Blitz to a rough paste – this is your nutty lemongrass paste

Step 12

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a medium-high heat

Step 13

Once hot, add the nutty lemongrass paste to the pan and cook for 3-4 mins until fragrant

Step 14

Meanwhile, remove the coconut cream from the sachet[s] and chop it roughly, then dissolve it in 150ml [250ml] boiled water – this is your coconut stock

Step 15

Once fragrant, add the haddock bites and coconut stock to the pan and cook for 4-5 min until the fish is cooked through

Step 16

While the fish is cooking, rip the remaining leaves off the spring greens, discard the tough stalks, then layer the leaves over each other, roll them up and slice into thin strips

Step 17

Once the fish is cooked, add the sliced spring greens and drained rice noodles and cook for 1-2 min further until the sauce starts to stick to the noodles

Step 18

Push the rice noodles to one side of the pan and crack the egg[s] into the other side

Step 19

Stir the egg[s] with a wooden spoon to break the yolk[s] and cook for 1-2 min until it resembles scrambled egg, then gently mix it through the rice noodles – this is your nutty lemongrass & haddock stir-fry

Step 20

Lay a spring green leaf on the base of each bowl
