It's a good thing this Thai dish is quick and easy to make, because it smells so amazing as it cooks that it's tempting to eat it straight from the pan! But it's worth the wait, especially for the coconut rice which has got to be the tastiest accompaniment around.

• Meanwhile, thinly slice carrot into rounds. • In a small bowl, combine sweet chilli sauce, ginger lemongrass paste, the soy sauce and a splash of water. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, combine Thai stir-fry spice, a pinch of salt and a drizzle of olive oil. • Add pork strips, tossing to coat.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. • When oil is hot, cook pork, in batches, tossing, until browned and cooked through, 2 minutes. • Transfer to a plate.
TIP: Pork can be served slightly blushing pink in the centre.
• Return frying pan to medium-high heat. • Cook carrot, tossing, until just tender, 3-4 minutes. • In the last minute of cook time, add sweet chilli mixture. Return pork to pan, then add baby spinach leaves and toss until coated and heated through.
• Divide coconut rice between bowls. • Top with Thai-spiced pork and veggie stir-fry. • Sprinkle with roasted peanuts to serve. Enjoy!
