Ingredients
  

  • 300 g Quorn pieces or Quorn chicken-style chunks
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup for vegan option
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger grated
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch optional, for thicker sauce
  • 1 red bell pepper sliced
  • 1 small onion sliced
  • 2 spring onions chopped (for garnish)

Method
 

  1. Heat vegetable oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add Quorn pieces and cook until lightly golden, about 5–7 minutes.
  2. Add sliced onion and bell pepper, stirring and cooking for another 3–4 minutes until slightly softened.
  3. In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and water.
  4. If using cornstarch, dissolve it in a tablespoon of water and add to the sauce mixture.
  5. Pour the sauce into the pan and stir well to coat the Quorn and vegetables evenly.
  6. Simmer for 3–5 minutes until the sauce thickens and becomes glossy.
  7. Remove from heat and garnish with spring onions and sesame seeds.
  8. Serve hot with rice, noodles, or steamed vegetables.

Notes

Chef’s Tips
  • Don’t overcook Quorn—just brown it lightly before adding sauce for best texture.
  • Adjust sweetness or saltiness by balancing honey and soy sauce to taste.
  • Add chili flakes or sriracha for a spicy kick.
  • For extra depth, let the sauce reduce slightly before serving.
  • This dish works great with added veggies like broccoli, snap peas, or carrots for more crunch and nutrition.
