Method

  1. Heat half the coconut oil in a large wok over high heat. Cook half the prawns in one layer for 90 seconds, then turn them. Add half the garlic and chilli and cook for about 1 minute until the prawns are opaque throughout. Transfer to a clean plate and repeat with the remaining oil, prawns, garlic and chilli.
  2. Return all the cooked prawns to the wok and turn off the heat.
  3. Pull the wok off the heat. Splash over the fish sauce and 15 ml lime juice. Toss to coat so every prawn is glossy.
  4. In a separate bowl, toss the mango, cucumber, torn coriander and mint with the remaining 15 ml lime juice. Taste; it should be bright, fragrant, and just sharp enough.
  5. Divide the rice between four bowls and top with the rocket.
  6. Spoon over the prawns and any pan juices, then pile on the mango salsa. Scatter with the toasted coconut and cashews.
  7. Finish with the sesame seeds and any optional coconut yoghurt, sweet chilli sauce and quick-pickled onion.
