POLOKWANE – Fried rice is a dish of cooked rice that has been stir-fried in a wok or a frying pan and is usually mixed with other ingredients such as eggs, vegetables, seafood, or meat.
What’s for Dinner says prawns, limes, soy sauce and coriander are flavoured with Knorr vegetable stock, before adding eggs for an extra flavour and texture.
Ingredients
Method
Cook the rice according to package directions.
Drain the rice, without cooling, and place in the colander back over the pan. Heat the oil in a large wok. Add in the prawns and spring onions followed by the Knorr Vegetable Stock Pot. Stir gently over low heat until the stock melts. Add in rice and cook gently for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Push the ingredients to one side of the wok and pour in the eggs. Leave the eggs there, stirring once or twice, until they scramble, then mix the egg through with the rice.
Add the soy sauce (or fish sauce), fresh coriander, Robertsons White Pepper, spring onions and chillies, stir just to combine before serving. Serve with lime wedges
