Method

  • step 1

    Put the rice in a saucepan with 600ml water. Bring to boil, cover, then simmer for 10 mins or until almost all the water has gone. Leave off the heat, covered, for 5 mins more.

  • step 2

    Heat the oil in wok or large frying pan. Add the garlic and chilli, then cook for 10 secs – making sure not to let it burn. Throw in the cooked rice, stir fry for 1 min, then push to the side of the pan. Pour the eggs into the empty side of the pan, then scramble them, stirring. Once just set, stir the peas and spring onions into the rice and egg, then cook for 2 mins until the peas are tender. Add the prawns and soy sauce, heat through, then serve with extra soy sauce on the side, if you like.

Delicious alongside stir fried veg. Often avoided making fried rice due to cooling etc, but this was solved by properly rinsing rice beforehand and cooking as per recipe. No sticking!! Husband thoroughly approved :)

Be mindful of the starch in the rice, next time I’ll rinse it off as it became stodgy

Do you chop the ginger and garlic into the soy?

This recipe got my 11 year old son eating prawns, so it's becoming established as a family favourite.

Better than average, hence the 3 stars. I just felt it was missing something. I didn't use salt or pepper because it didn't say to (I'm pedantic with recipes). May have been better without the prawns. Not sure if the soy sauce did much for it either. I used dried chillies because I couldn't get hold…
