    1 Cut chillies into small chunks and discard seeds. Mix sauces, stock and sugar together in a bowl.

    2 Heat a little of the oil in a wok or non-stick pan to a medium-high heat and stir-fry cashews for a minute. Remove with slotted spoon and set to one side. Stir-fry chillies for 1 minute to darken slightly. Remove with slotted spoon and set to one side.

    3 Add half the garlic to pan and cook for a few minutes. Add chicken, half at a time and cook over a high heat for 4-5 minutes. Remove from pan and repeat with remaining garlic and chicken. Return all the chicken back to pan.

    4 Add the vegetables, except the spring onion, with the sauce and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add the chillies, spring onion and cashew nuts. Toss lightly and serve with rice or noodles. Garnish with fresh coriander.
