Wok away... Scampi and veg

felander (72)in #food • 7 years ago

It has been a while since I have shared my other hobby with you and since we had the inlaws visiting I thought I would share a bit of my Cooking skills with you all

We eat a lot of vegetarian but we are not vegetarian or vegan. I personally think one should eat healthy and that is mostly vegetarian but once in a while I will really enjoy a nice Steak and more often a fine piece of fish. So here was it was no different.

I prepared a Scampi Wok with loads of vegetables

here is what I used but you can vary as much as you like to your own taste and would also be nice with Chicken or just with the vegetables alone.

20 Scampi
3 paprika (yellow, red, green)
big red onion
4 garlic cloves
1 zucchini
1 aubergine

I have the process you can follow with pictures but I will explain them step by step here as well.

You start by washing and then cutting everything into pieces.
Boil water and add the bags of rice
The first thing that goes into the wok is the oil and once that is hot you add the onions and the garlic and fry them until glassy.
Then you add the scampi and fry them until not glassy.
Generously add pepper and curcuma
Add the paprika
After a minute or 2 add the Zucchini and the Aubergine (and a bit of soy sauce)
Fry it up and let it simmer for a few minutes
Take the rice out of the water after 8 min instead of 12 and let it drip out (I have an original system as you can see)
Add the coconut milk and some lemon grass
Add the rice and let simmer for 5-10 min on low heat
Serve and enjoy
