Equipment
- Box grater
- Wok or skillet
Instructions
- To a pan over medium heat, add the oil, pale parts of the onions, garlic, ginger and carrot. Cook for 2 minutes.
- Add the chicken mince and adjust to medium-high heat. Cook, breaking up lumps with a wooden spoon, until it changes colour, from pink to a creamy all over with no pink bits left.
- In a small jug, or old jam jar, combine the honey, oyster sauce, soy sauce, dark soy and chilli flakes.
- Add the sauce to the chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring every now and then to make sure it’s not catching on the bottom, until the sauce has thickened and almost disappeared into the chicken mince.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the sesame oil and green parts of the spring onions, then serve.
