    1 tbsp sunflower oil

Pour in the stock, stirring until the sauce has thickened slightly. Add the soy sauce and mango chutney. Cover and simmer for 3 – 4 minutes. Blend until smooth using a stick blender.
  3. Pop the Young’s Popcorn Scampi Bites onto a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes according to the packet instructions.
  4. Meanwhile, cook the rice in boiling water according to the packet instructions and drain.
  5. Using a potato peeler, create some cucumber ribbons.
