Method

  • step 1

    Heat the oil in a large frying pan or wok. Tip in the eggs and swirl to coat the base of the pan. Cook for 1 min, then flip and cook the other side until set. Remove and roughly chop into ribbons.

  • step 2

    Add the curry paste and sugar and fry for 1 min. Tip in the rice and stir to coat in the paste, then add the spring onions and peas. Stir-fry for 2-3 mins until everything is really hot. Add the soy sauce, then gently toss through the omelette ribbons and mackerel.

  • step 3

    Divide between 4 bowls and garnish with the cucumber. Serve with extra soy sauce, if you like.

Hi, thanks for your question. We wouldn't recommend freezing this particular dish. Dishes suitable for freezing will have a blue snowflake and the word 'freezable' alongside the recipe title. We hope this helps. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.

Nice but missing something maybe extra chilli or citrus. Didn’t think it needed the caster sugar.
