Ginger Chicken

This simple stir-fry is a good one to make with any older pieces of ginger you might have knocking around the fridge, as the stronger flavour and tougher texture of mature ginger is perfect to flavour this delicious sauce. Try to keep your ginger root in one piece after you crush it if at all possible as it makes it so much easier to fish out at the end and avoid any unexpected fiery mouthfuls!
