Provided you don't have high blood cholesterol you should enjoy this easy mid week meal.
Delightfully, the Vietnamese serve chilli on the side so the whole family from young children to adults can enjoy a meal together - with heat or without.

Ingredients
1 tbsp ginger, grated
2 tbsp water
1 tbsp lemon juice
750 grams green prawns, peeled and deveined
2 litres water
1 tbsp tea oil
4 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
1 bunch beetroot greens, stalks removed
3 cups Chinese cabbage, shredded
1 large red chilli (optional), deseeded and finely chopped
Method

Combine the ginger, fish sauce, water, maple syrup and lemongrass together.
Bring a pan of water to boil and add the prawns. When the water returns to the boil, remove the heat and set aside for a few minutes before draining. Pour the sauce over the prawns.

Heat the tea oil in a wok or large frying pan and add the garlic. Stir for a couple of minutes taking care not to brown the garlic. Add the beetroot greens and cabbage and stir through for a further 2 minutes. Toss the prawns over the top with the shallots and chilli if desired and serve.

Note : Beetroot greens are even more nutritious than the beetroot itself, providing fibre, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, K, calcium, iron and magnesium.
