Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups cooked jasmine rice
- 200 grams vegan prawns
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 1 medium, diced onion
- 3 cloves, minced garlic
- 1 medium, diced carrot
- 1 cup green peas
- 1 medium, diced red bell pepper
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 stalks, chopped spring onions
- 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 medium, cut into wedges lime
Instructions
Start by preparing all your ingredients: dice the onion, carrot, and red bell pepper, mince the garlic, and chop the spring onions. Set the cooked jasmine rice aside to cool if not already done.
In a large non-stick pan or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil over medium heat. Add the vegan prawns and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they are lightly golden. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Add the remaining tablespoon of sesame oil to the same pan. Add the diced onion and garlic, and sauté for about 2 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.
Stir in the diced carrot, green peas, and red bell pepper. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, until the vegetables start to soften.
Push the vegetables to one side of the pan and add the cooled jasmine rice. Pour the soy sauce over the rice and stir everything together.
Return the cooked vegan prawns to the pan. Add the sriracha sauce and ground black pepper. Toss everything together to combine and heat through for another 2-3 minutes.
Garnish the fried rice with chopped spring onions and squeeze lime wedges over each serving for a fresh kick.
Serve hot and enjoy your Vegan Prawn Fried Rice!
