Ingredients

  • 300 g cold, cooked white rice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tsps ginger puree/paste
  • 2 tbsps light soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tbsp shaoxing rice wine
  • 2 eggs lightly beaten
  • 300 g raw king prawns
  • 2 lap cheung sausage diced
  • 80g cooked roast chicken slices chopped
  • 3 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 handful frozen peas
  • 1 handful frozen sweetcorn
  • 2 spring onions sliced
  • Chinese chilli oil for serving (optional)

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, combine the light soy sauce and oyster sauce, and put to one side.
  • Heat a wok or large frying pan with one tablespoon of vegetable oil on high. Then add the beaten egg. Quickly scramble the egg, so the egg is nearly cooked - although not fully. Put to one side.
  • In the same wok, heat the remaining vegetable oil, then the lap cheung sausage and chicken and stir fry for 1-2 minutes, then add the garlic, ginger, peas, sweetcorn and prawns. Give it all a good stir.
  • Once the prawns have started colouring, drizzle the Shaoxing wine around the sides of the wok. This is to add a depth of umami flavour. Then add the soy sauce and oyster sauce and give a good stir.
  • Now it's time to add your cold rice and the scrambled egg. Keep stir-frying the rice with the rest of the ingredients on a high heat until the rice has soaked in all the sauces. Around 2-3 minutes.
  • Serve in bowls, scatter some green onions/spring onions and chilli sauce if you're after an extra fiery kick.
