Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

  1. Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9. Cut the potatoes into 2cm cubes. Place on a lined baking tray and toss with 1 tbsp oil, a pinch of sea salt and black pepper. Roast for 25-30 mins, until soft and golden.
  2. Dissolve the cornflour in a jug with 50ml cold water, then top up with 200ml hot water (75ml for 1 person) and crumble in half the stock cube. Stir to dissolve. Cut 1 spring onion into 2cm pieces, and thinly slice the remaining. Finely slice the garlic. Finely chop or grate the ginger. Trim and cut the pak choi into bite-sized pieces.
  3. Heat a medium frying pan on medium heat. Add the cashews and toast for 2-3 mins, tossing regularly, until golden brown. Remove and set aside. Add 1 tbsp oil and the spring onion pieces, garlic and ginger and cook for 2 mins.
  4. Make the dressing; mix the honey, balsamic and rice vinegar in a small bowl. Add the stock mixture, pak choi, mangetout and half the dressing to the pan. Simmer for 3-4 mins, until thickened slightly. Add the prawns and simmer for 2-3 mins, until cooked.
  5. Once the potatoes are cooked, add the remaining dressing to the tray and mix to combine. Season with sea salt and black pepper.
  6. Serve the potatoes topped with the prawn mixture. Garnish with cashews and remaining spring onion.
