I love a stir fry particularly when you have had a long day. The prep takes a bit of time but the cooking is so quick. This stir fry was fresh vibrant and really tasty. It was much lighter as it only has lime juice and fish sauce. Pork fillet works perfectly in a stir fry as it is so tender. Leaving it to rest while you cook the other ingredients really makes a massive difference.

• 400g pork fillet, cut into strips
• 1 red pepper, de seeded and cut into 1cm pieces
• 4 spring onions, finely sliced
