Step 2

Lay out the prawns on a double layer of kitchen paper and pat them dry with more kitchen roll – if they’re wet they don’t fry well.

Step 3

Halve the sugar snaps down the middle, lengthways, so that you can see the peas peeking out. Heat the oil in a frying pan until hot then add the sugar snaps and stir- fry for about 30 seconds.

Step 4

Add the prawns, chilli and garlic, turn the heat down a little and stir-fry until the prawns have just turned pink.

Step 5

Throw in the fish sauce, sugar and lime juice and stir around to help the sugar dissolve, then add in the basil.

Step 6

Serve with rice and scattered with seeds or nuts if you like.
