Cauliflower Kung Pao
A childhood favourite, kung pao was our standard order from the Chinese takeaway when we were kids. Myself and my brother would share an adult portion and fight (quite literally!) over who got the biggest share of cashews. When making any version of kung pao now, I make sure to include an ample amount of cashews, sharing them out nice and evenly amongst those partaking in the eating. That way, no one feels hard done by!
