The kitchen cupboards are full of butterbeans, lentils and chickpeas and the pot-bellied white wire basket on the counter kept loaded with eggs as much possible.

Crispy Seaweed

Lies, all lies.  Crispy seaweed is not actually seaweed at all but is most commonly pak choi or savoy cabbage.  If you can get past the deceit, this is a relatively easy take away classic to make at home.  The only messy part is doing the deep frying. 

500 g pak choi (or savoy cabbage)

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp caster sugar

oil for deep frying

Wash and dry the pak choi leaves.  Remove the tough lower parts of the stems and very finely slice the leaves into ribbons.

Deep fry the leaves in batches for about 30 seconds, remove with a slotted spoon and leave to drain on kitchen paper.  Place into a serving bowl and sprinkle with the salt and sugar.
