Preparation
Place prepared carrots, celery, green onions, garlic, ginger and chilli into a 1 litre microwave safe jug. Cook on HIGH (100%) for 5 minutes.
Add the green prawns and soy sauce. Pour in chicken stock. Cover the jug and place in the microwave oven and cook on HIGH (100%) for 5 minutes.
Uncover carefully away from you to avoid escaping steam and serve in small bowls garnished with coriander leaves.
TIP: replace prawns with cubes of firm tofu and Japanese soy for a vegetarian alternative.
