Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Jasmine rice (cooked and chilled)
- 12 pieces Large prawns (peeled and deveined)
- 2 large Eggs
- 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 2 stalks Spring onions (finely chopped)
- 0.5 cups Frozen peas and carrots mix
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0.25 teaspoons White pepper
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
Instructions
Prepare the jasmine rice ahead of time and chill it in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour (or overnight) for better texture.
In a small bowl, beat the eggs with a pinch of salt and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the prawns to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until pink and opaque. Remove them from the pan and set aside.
Add another tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Pour in the beaten eggs and quickly scramble them until just set. Remove and set aside with the prawns.
Add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet along with the minced garlic. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the frozen peas and carrots mix to the skillet and stir-fry for 2 minutes until heated through.
Increase the heat to high and add the chilled jasmine rice to the skillet. Break up any clumps with a spatula and stir-fry for 3 minutes.
Return the cooked prawns and scrambled eggs to the skillet. Toss everything together.
Drizzle the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil over the rice. Sprinkle in the white pepper and a small pinch of salt. Stir-fry for another 2 minutes to combine and heat through.
Garnish the fried rice with chopped spring onions and serve immediately.
