  2. Add the pineapple (reserve the juice) and spring onions and continue to cook gently for a further minute.

  4. Reduce to a simmer and heat gently for a further 5-6 minutes. Season with pepper and adjust the sweetness if necessary.

Try adding other vegetables such as green beans or thin carrot batons.

Quorn fillets can be used instead of Quorn pieces, just defrost and tear into pieces.
