Allow it to heat up so it starts to crackle and pop then add the peas and the chopped chili. Let the contents soften for a few minutes. Add the fish portions and jumbo king prawns and allow to cook slowly with the lid on the wok. When the fish is cooked it will flake easily and when raw prawns are cooked they turn pink.
