Cashew Chicken in Oyster Sauce

Here’s an easy mid-week dinner that might stop you wanting a takeaway. It is very simply put together and you can use any vegetables you want, it is a handy one to throw in some new vegetables for the kids to try. Hey they mightn’t even pick them out if you cut them small enough!  My favourite combination is green beans, baby sweetcorn, pak choi and mushrooms but I tailor it to use up whatever is in the fridge.  The boys both love it so I’ll be making it often for sure.
