2 tbs vegetable oil
1 tbs lemongrass paste
1 tbs ginger paste
1 tbs garlic paste
500g turkey mince
1 red capsicum, thinly sliced
125g sugar snap peas, trimmed
1 bunch broccolini, halved lengthways if large
1 long red chilli, thinly sliced (optional)
2 tbs soy sauce
1 tbs fish sauce
1 tbs lime juice
1 tsp runny honey
Coriander leaves, to garnish
Steamed jasmine rice, to serve
Lime wedges, to serve

Method

1.

Heat the oil in a large wok or frypan over medium-high heat. Add the lemongrass, ginger and garlic pastes, and stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add the turkey mince and cook, breaking mince up with a wooden spoon, for 5-6 minutes or until browned. Stir in the capsicum, sugar snap peas, broccolini and chilli, if using, and stir-fry for a further 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
2.

Meanwhile, combine the soy sauce, fish sauce, lime juice and honey in a small bowl. Pour the sauce over the turkey and vegetables. Stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until the sauce is heated through and everything is well coated in the sauce.
3.

Garnish with coriander leaves and serve with steamed jasmine rice and lime wedges.
